I think that this may be the single most intelligent thought out post that I have ever read. Modding your car can be like wrestling smoke if you let it get away from you. Use the KISS rule and you usually can't go wrong. In the end after years of research and forethought, I ended up with a set of 24/18s, Protomotive custom map, ICs, Injectors, Turbo inlet ducts, Plenum, Europipe, Forge DVs, Hoses, GMG sport clutch w/LWFW (good to 700 hp), Champion magnesium rims, Nitto tires. This took several years, but it was well worth the wait. The car is an absolute animal (625-650 hp at the crank on a Gt2 can be dangerous to your health). And I can tell you as far as modifications to make it faster are concerned, I'm done. Take your time, good luck.

around 600hp on any 996/997TT variant is a lot of fun on the street.

you don't need more than that unless you have friends in/near the 1khp bracket. ask me how i know this

While you're at it, you might even consider Protomotive. Todd is a great and a very helpful guy..I'm very happy with his work..

exhaust, ecu, tcu and PSS10's should be more than enough for a daily driver. Stock intake is more than enough for that setup. Intake starts to choke if you go with the Garrett turbos, not even upgraded VTG's. Not worth it IMO. My suggest for the tuner is Protomotive, hands down. Switzer also does nice work. And I've been hearing very good things about EVOMS, but never worked with them.

You will have lots of fun with that package. No need to go overboard, since you have 1K+ hp TT Gallardo
