I actually have a friend the uses the GT2 as a DD... but I think his testis are shrinking coz he is talking about get'n another car as a DD

Back to the ttS... if the difference between the tt and ttS is similar to that of the 996 then its not worth it BUT if it is comparable to the variation achieved between the 993t and the 993tS then I think one should go for it...

Yes, the turbo order guide for '10 so far indicates dry sump w/external tank....but no one's talking. Could be a typo, or could be truth.

Didnt the 996 Turbo S get the same HP as the 996 GT2?

The 996 Turbo S got 450 hp when it came out, (The 02-03 996 GT2 had 456) and the 04-05 996 GT2 had 483hp.

10 TT does not have gt1 split block dry sump engine. Big change. I assume the S will also be based on the new block.

If I had to guess, the new TT S will have 530hp and the facelifted GT2 possibly 550hp.

Too much to multi quote... But if I were guessing, I'd say nothing is spot on so far...

No, Turbo S was 444hp (440? 445?) GT2 was 456. The X50 had 450 and had same running gear as GT2 if I recall correctly, I do not believe the Turbo S did which is why X50>Turbo S imo
