MAYBE I would believe some of that if it was a 3.2, but not a 2.5.

I was talking to a friend about this car and he suggested that I offer the guy a deal. Double his asking price if we can meet at the dyno and put down 734hp - otherwise I get the car for free

Doubt he would take me up on that....

I bet it's even "competitive" with a 997 GT3 RS!

LOL!!!

Graphics and stickers = Stage 4

Also, if you go by the claimed 25hp per psi, that is 575 hp at 23psi.

That car has the gayest collection of stickers I have ever seen. What PCA class doesn't require a roll cage...?

Just so you guys know, he reserved the "wright" to sell. I'll be damned if i'm going to buy a car from someone who didn't finish highschool...

500 is easy, it is getting it to run the second time that is the trick!

LR Solid lifter (anyone want to bet it is JUST the SL plate, and not the full mod) , oil cooled turbo, stock diameter (looks almost too small) IC charge pipes (they are NOT stock pipes, but too small to be any others readilly available, so maybe they are super custom intercharger pipes)

PCAW (read p-caw) don't need no stinkin cage, and encourage higher horsepower cars to retain their interior and stereos, but only instructors are allowed to crank it to 11 on the track....

I bet his car is easily good for 750ish HP on a dyno, granted the correction factors are out of this world!

360whp at best. I think we should offer the guy $1000 cash if he can dyno the car with witnesses and get half the figures he's claiming. Who would turn up $1000 free ?? Surely it can make only half right?
