It will be awesome to see the results as the 997 is a great platform to modify.

any chance you guys have a rough gestimate of what these can handle on stock internals?

and who makes a good clutch for a substantial up in hp?

seeing your 996 really makes me want to throw caution to the wind and do a bolt-on turbo setup but, ehhhh that could be a pricy mistake with out proper supporting mods.

where in zona is chandler?

There has been talk that should be able to handle around 700 hp but I dont think it has really been put to the test. Our car is stock block and makes killer power and the 997 is supposed to be a bit more stout.

We use the clutch masters and it works great, or you can go the Sachs route.

Chandler is kind of South East of Phoenix. Not to far from Central Phoenix.

Let me know maybe we can work something out and test mule on your car for part fitment.

We will find out just how fast it is at the end of this month at TX2K8. With the quarter mile run and 60-130 test we will know exactly how fast it really is.
