Porsche guys now running 9.79 @ 146.4 with just bolt on kits ... wow
Looks like those 911 turbos have quite overengineered engines. With just just bolt on kit on a stock engine those guys now do 9.79 @ 146.4 - and that's a car on his street tires not even prepared for drag racing ...
Switzer Performance Innovation 997TT runs a record 9.79@146.4! - 6speedonline.com Forums |
for 150,000 it better
|
remember they are also all wheel drive cars...
|
^With launch and traction control.
Mercedes, Porsche, Ferrari Tuning, Performance Upgrades Looks like $12k for 700hp. If that's a no-shitter 700AWHP, then I'm impressed. The new 997's roll 400awhp stock. |
impressive

you know though...I love porsches, but I'm not sure if all you want to do is go fast at the track that it would really be worth the extra cash to have one over a supra??? They'd both be very nice cars, and you could build a nice supra for less than half of the porsche, not to mention the supra guys seem to get decent money for their cars when they're done....(not that the porsches don't, but it seems like you could end up wayyyyy backwards in a nice porsche). The european cars just seem horrible whenever it comes to resale. I've got an E55 right now I'm trying to sell that I picked up used a while back. It WAS an 75-80ish k car whenever it was new, now I'm hard pressed to get 17k out of it. Kinda sad, because it's a lot of car for 17k.

R888s aren't exactly street tires, but that's still fucking impressive.

Looks like they can double their horsepower with bolt ons just like Miatas double hp with just F/I bolt ons without having to up the internals :) |
Wow.
|
Wow. My car sucks.
|
while its impressive and fast as shit, I would be pretty pissed of if my car didnt run that after I dumped 150+k for it and then another 15+ on mods. sure basic boltons, but look at the prices

Holy jizztastic Batman! I think I emptied both nuts.
Two towels |

At the end of they day you are driving a miata and he is driving a porsche. Also, after you put 150k in to a miata it wont be daily driven anymore, while the porsche will. |
That's crazy. Apparently Porsche knows how to make an AWD tranny that doesn't grenade on launch.
Even more amazing is that forum...damn near all of the posters from that thread had insane 800hp+ cars. |

$15k on a $150k car? Not bad if you ask me. Tell me, how fast can you make a Miata for 10% of it's original cost AND using quality parts?

If you can dump 150k...and then 15k...you can afford to fix that shit.
|
If your happy to hand over 150K initially 15k is peanuts for the extra power.
Until its peanuts il still be driving a miata lol. |
