Arrow Video: Sights & Sounds @ 8800rpms of a SharkWerks Built Motor Tuned with EVOMSit

Hey folks, over the past few months SharkWerks has been developing/proofing our 3.9L 997GT3RS 500hp engine thanks to our collaboration with our chums over at EVOMS. Those guys keep on going crazy with Turbos so somebody had to deal with the naturally aspirated engines eh? If you’re into dynos, track testing, exhaust sounds, racing et al. this video we put together (the wife using Avid) should have you covered. We’ve collected a plethora of footage over the last few months and in particular wanted to share some of the facets of real-time tuning made available now with the EVOMSit program. Being a curious lad by nature I always wondered why nobody ever really gets to see behind the (iron?) curtain. So what’s the actual process like? And what are the tools involved when it comes to the secretive “black magic” Porsche tuning? A blend of some very expensive equipment (ok and some skill), good hardware and the EVOMSit set up and we think we have some neat results. For those of you with EVOMSit software now you know some of the how and why. The last couple of years have brought forward some major breakthroughs in our little corner of the industry (just look at some of the EVOMS Texas Mile results) and there’s a lot more to come but for now here’s a taste….

Alex, there are always a time when one should know that they are one of the Best!! My man you have reached that level. When James Wong said that his RS felt lethargic compared to your 3.9, I knew right then that you where on a path to Porsche Stardom.. Congrats Pal, for taking an already wonderful machine and making it better.. It may cost us all an additional 25K, but what the Hell, it's only money...Right????~ Kenny

A very enjoyable compilation video.

I guess it was all worth the wait Sharky. A big congrats to you (Sharkwerks)and the crew at Evoms. A magnificent outcome. Drive it safely bro.

Now you are tempting me to switch from Turbo Porsches to GT3 /NA Porsches.

The Shark is leaping out of the water guys. Beware.
