9FF can also turbocharge a GT3/RS to 750bhp and leave it looking totally standard... Hopefully having a test drive in July.

This article is wrong there is no way they added 350bhp with an ecu and exhaust change!

Interesting that they can get it up to 240mph with what looks like fairly minimal aero work. I mean, obviously, enough power can push that much air out of the way, but it's a testament to the stability of the 997 platform that you can get to those speeds without flipping upside down, or developing other potentially fatal wiggles in the airstream.

350HP with just an ECU tune and a new exhaust?

They must have done some tweaking (or replacing) to the turbo itself to achieve those numbers. imo.

one of the prettiest death-wish machines ever made. kudos! i'd love to have the skill to put any of that added hp to use. hell, i'd love to have the skill to put the gt2 to proper use.
