I've really enjoyed watching the metamorphasis from bug to butterfly!!

Fantastic job....great to see someone with the vision and ability to do something like this.
Chuck thanks for the kind words. It has taken a year to finally get the car almost complete. I have to thank all my sponsors because without them I could have never done it.

Fantastic car. Very nicely detailed, and I love the interior carbon fiber. Definitely a head turner.

Hands down, that is the best looking 996tt on the planet. Congratulations on a job well done.

Thanks to all the Rennlist members who have been following this build since day 1, I really appreciate the support. We will be doing a full blown photo shoot next week.



Here are some photos of my car from the 2008 SEMA show in the Mobil 1 booth.



I want to thank all the sponsors who put in a considerable amount of time and effort trying to finish this car before the deadline.



Zolti and Sam of Auto Talent www.autotalent.com , Without their expertise and all of their late nights installing everything from K24/18G Turbos, GT3 Seats, Spec Clutch, Softronic programming, etc. to even the

minuscule parts such as installing the pedals, the car would have never made it to SEMA. I am forever grateful for everything you guys have done for me.



Brian and Raj of 3C Motorsports of Culver City , Thanks for all the last minute working in making sure all the body parts and the paint work was perfect. You guys went out of your way and I deeply appreciate all your hard work. You guys are the only body shop I trust for this work.



Andy and Neil at Theory Communication and Mobil 1 for being great marketing partners on this project.



Mike and Todd at EVOMS for the Intake



Kenny at Artsian Performance for the 650HP package.



Gary and his team at Brembo/Race Technolgies for the 15" brakes front and rear brakes.



Misha at 911wings.com for his experience, parts and being a pioneer to attempt this conversion. I would have never even thought this was possible until you called me.



Brian Fox at BASF for supplying the 997 GT3RS Green paint.



Zach Luke at Rockford Fosgate thanks for the audio equipment



Dan and Rob at Agency Power for the silcone boost hoses



The Racers Group for the front and rear endlinks



Stan at toyo tires for getting me the first T1-R 345/25/20 tires



MA Carbon for supplying me as many carbon fiber parts as my heart desired.



Spec Clutch for supplying the Stage 3+ Clutch and lighten flywheel



Chris at KW Suspension for the V3 Coilovers



Paul and Mike at PLX Devices for the custom organic gauges



Broadway Engineering for getting me the first r1000



Ryan and the Team at Creative Car Audio for creating the beautiful custom stereo system
