Modified 996 turbo reliability
Hello all. Currently I have a modified sl600 as a daily driver. It is just as reliable as the stock vehicle but lots more fun. My only complaint is traction! I am considering changing it up and buying one of these 700+ hp 911s out there. Is the reliability and daily driving ability still there on these cars? Anybody have one in southern fl?

Is it the TT V12 one?
Ask Sharkwerks, he's a member on here and tunes probably one of the most knowledgeable guys on tuned Porsches.

Have you considered fitting a Limited Slip Diff on your SL600 ?
Makes a huge difference, I've got it installed on my SLK55. Huge improvement.

traction is fine. reliability? all depends. i've gone through a motor (pre-sharkwerks) & a tranny. as 996tt's get older, more problems are surfacing.
