700 HP and I bet its smog legal too! The question is, who built the motor? Theres only a few guys doing twin plugs so someone's got to know this car. I Didn't check the vin# is it a N/A conversion or a turbo?

Hey, my car just has very good HP for the boost levels I run, definitely not the most powerful TT out there!

This car looks like a 993TT with sunroof delete, it is not an RS or CS, check out the sound system and options. It also has rear wiper delete, RS thin glass all around, and the obvious Techart and turbo S bodywork. Looks to me like a Protomotive conversion judging from the intercooler and exhaust pipes (I doubt it is as silent as they say). It is a 3.6 Ltr, and God knows how this claimed HP was measured and at what boost.
A bit expensive IMO.

Thanks Sameer!Seems like a good day for my ego! You are right about Andial. Quite a few do Twin-Plug in fact, it is not any more difficult than single plug when you have an aftermarket EFI ECU, but not with Motronic.

"I know Andial does the twinplug"

The Andial twin plug will pass smog. If this is anything close to the advertised hp, he must run GT2 cams or something more radical and there is no way you will pass Ca emissions with the kind of tune you need to generate 700hp.

I didn't think Andial offer 700hp package.

andial does a cali legal 571 hp 993- i see it in the shop when i take mine in- adverts on their website too i think.

btw- i had a teammate last year who has a texas and illinois - smog legal 993 tt with between 660 and 700 hp. stage 3 something or other custom car from fred baker in chicago. i got to see and hear it almost every day for months- it's legit. more of a drag speed car than a road racer obviously. absolutely amazing, it sounds like a fighter plane, doesn't even sound like a porsche.

The cage looks like SS, and has a bend at the bottom that I'm not a fan of. 1/2 the guages are black the other 1/2 white...what's up with that?
