My new Switzer 997 Sledgehammer

hi, i am new to this board, but just wanted to share with everyone my 997 Turbo build by Switzer Performance Innovation. The project started approximately 6 months ago to build the world's most powerful bolt on street 997 turbo in the world. I think we have accomplished that. Here are some pics , videos, and stats on the car:

850 rwhp / 727 rwtq @ 1.65 bar boost
YouTube - SPI 997 Sledgehammer Dyno Pull

1/4 mile = 9.79 @ 146.4 mph (full weight, full tire pressure)
YouTube - SPI Sledgehammer 1/4 Mile Testing

60 - 130 mph = 4.86 seconds
YouTube - SPI 997 Sledgehammer 60-130

Enjoy!
David

David, how did you dyno on a 2 wheel dyno with 997TT AWD? Front wheels never moved. Curious 'cause I want to dyno mine but am having hard time finding a AWD dyno.
Thanks.

You must disconnect the drivetrain.

Gotta be converted to rwd. He does say 850 rwhp above, not awhp.

Very impressive build. Enjoy it in good health!

The car was dynoed in rear wheel drive, however, all the videos of the 1/4 mile and 60 - 130 mph run were all done in AWD. Just disconnected the driveshaft for dyno purposes
