Black Monday: 2010 997TT & Panamera TT Arrive @ SharkWerks

It was Black Friday last week with the GT3s and so it seems the black theme continued today We've got a pair of black on black 2010 twin turbo cars (one a 997.2TT and the other the PanameraTT) to work on this week....

In comes the 2010 997TT:




The factory wheels are somewhat nicer than the Mk1 factory wheels.


The steering wheel and paddles are brilliant and so much better than the standard PDK wheel...


But on to more important matters:


Reading out the new 2010 ECU...


Already hard at work deciphering the new 997TT ECU


Early days yet but my first impressions are that the car is considerably quicker than the 997.1TT out of the box. With the gearing and blazing quick shifts in PDK form it really goes hard from down low. The suspension is more predictable. She looks a lot like the outgoing 997.1TT from the outside. Other than the front LEDs, the larger rear tail pipes (and LEDs) and bigger side mirrors are the giveaways.

As far as the Panamera goes it actually uses a different ECU and it's stashed away and harder to get to than the Cayenne:


James hard at work...


I have to say she goes like a bat out of hell even in stock form Fred will be happy



More on these projects soon I promise:P

I love the black 997.2TT. The Turbo 2 wheels with painted inserts really set this combination off.

How do you determine what the engine can withstand given its completely new design??

Does the 997.2tt sound any louder or different than a 997.1tt with stock exhaust?

Thanks for the pics! In the press pics, I really wasn't feeling those new turbo wheels, but that combo is hot!
