Bold thing to list without a dyno, but i do love the matte blue wrap. Oh yeah, 1,000 Hp and "parking assist", those go together well.

There is a lot of money in that car, it will be interesting to see what it goes for. I am not a fan of wraps, feel like I would want to see what the paint actually looked like if I was buying something like that.

I was looking at that car earlier today.
I wonder what the paint looks like underneath.
I kinda liked how it looked in the before pictures.

car should easily make 1000hp. Not terribly uncommon on the water cooled turbos.

I wonder if the bottom end can handle the 1000hp.

Why not dyno it and show the results, especially if you're gonna sell it and talk about the Hp.? I wasn't questioning the seller's integrity in any way.

This isn't hard to do.. Well managed boost with the proper internals, and combination can do it. My last 996TT engine made 908 at the wheels, and that was a couple of years ago. 997 is a bit easier.
Just add money, and stir...
