Thanks for following us on this turbo-real-time-sorta-update journey of another 3.9. Yep she was born a couple of days ago and broken in and ready for pick up tomorrow.

A few of the last steps...

And all back together again. Ready to be installed back into the car:


For 500hp we outfit the transmission with our upgraded clutch kit assembly including the RS single mass flywheel. The 997 GT3RS lightweight flywheel is in itself a great upgrade to help bring the car to life... easier revs, better 0-60 and a lot more fun to drive:


Before the transmission and engine are installed back into the car we install a revamped/strengthened limited slip differential unit from our friends at Guard Transmission:



In she goes...


Back in the car again with all the fluids:


The rear suspension is tightened up with the RSS upper rear links and bump-steer upgrade as well:


On goes the bypass and our larger tips:


Sound clip of the bypass on a 997 GT3:

The all-important ECU is then configured with the EVOMSit tuning:


A video showing some of the tuning method:

An alignment is up next:


Notice the new 3.9 badge...


And now ready for her 500+mile trip down South!

I miss driving my car!!!

Can someone take care of my 3 months old Chocolate Lab puppy while I take my car out for a spin (and possibly a wash)?
