Plus as shes leaning in to a corner and holding it while watching you bouce off the road due to your garbage suspention.... You will realize she has the right car for the job.
America and the big three like to go fast in a straight line for 1/4 mile.. Europe likes to go fast around corners and go for hours on the autobahn.....

The TPC Racing CT-500 Turbo kit for the 996 is a great kit that wakes the car up. The power comes on smooth, making the car a pleasure to drive. Where some people would think that having a turbo would mean that there is "lag" compared to the supercharger, there is no waiting for the power with this kit. We have clients tracking their 996's and 997's with the CT-500 (996 kit) CT-520 (997 kit) and enjoy it very much because they can put the power down and have it come in smooth.
The drive-ability of the car is fantastic. When driving a car with the TPC Racing CT-500 kit as a daily driver, you don't notice anything different, but once you get into the throttle, a new world opens up. The exhaust note is a bit louder than stock with more grunt to it, but nothing obnoxious that produces a loud drone in the cabin.

Curious about the kit as the site doesnt say explicitly that I can read, what is the ECU and tuning applied in your kit? IC specifications and turbo specs? Max boost pressure tested? Intake charge temps? Pressure drop across the IC? Cheers!
