To make the deal even sweeter.. a new header/cat/muffler system has just been released to bring the peak power up to ~396 HP. That's 97% of the power of a 993TT but naturally aspirated!

Sounds nice too. There is a video posted on the 997 forum.

Maybe if it develops an RMS issue, it will get that 'smell' back

BTW you guys wanna hear something really mean and nasty? Fabspeed now sells their supercup exhaust for the 997S...

If I was able to forget my ego and give-up my actual project, I would buy a 997. It is simply a fantastic car !

But it will also be a good reason to find 996 for good prices
