Yes 450 HP in the RS.

I had the TT upgraded with a Protomotive kit and other suspension stuff (pss10's and RS sway bars etc) and it was well set up and tuned by Protosport in NJ last summer.
With the EBC in high boost (1.15barg boost) Todd suggests it now produces in the area of 525-550HP. Absolutely scary/awesome torque too.

I'm really looking forward to experiencing the RS in the spring!

Wow, you just have my two favorite cars right there. Very nice!
And I have to say, the 993 has the nicest rear end!

My friend (Targa Tim) who lives a few blocks from me has a blue '10 gt3rs. We've done some roll-ons and it is very close (I have Kevin's stage II). Almost depends on how you're shifting, with the 993t, it takes longer to shift and the gt3rs catches up/passes. In higher elevations I think the turbo may be faster. May also depend on which wheels I have on (weight difference) - it's that close. I have done some weight loss and our two cars weigh exactly the same 3174 lbs with 1/2 tank gas! When I first drove the GT3RS the first thing that came to mind was that it felt very similar to my 993t. At the local track, our times are very similar, but he can drive a lot longer (less driver fatigue - or it may be that I'm in poorer shape...)

Congrats, DRPM!

That is one beautiful RS. What a garage to envy - the best of the air cooled and the best of the new.

Excellent pair of Porsches!

Make sure the bikes above it are very secure. I got palpitations just looking at your picture.
