Sir we will see. Absolute no claims or bragging here sir, not my style. Never pretentious, just the facts. I have driven competitively in the 90's (SCCA & IMSA) but now am an old warhorse at 62 so am not as fast 
Hopes/plans are after initial track shakedown are to take a 3.8 RS, 4.0 RS and my RS to Sebring with Lucas Luhr as the shoe to do a comparison.
Am discussing this with Champion Motorsport to get this accomplished.
We will see.

I think that your 997.1 GT3 RS would do plenty better than a 4.0 RS. If you have seen Gavin's 997.1 GT3 RS at Sebring you would agree, Gavin runs circles around his own 4.0 RS with the properly modified 997.1 GT3 RS.

The exhaust doesn't look stock to me. Anyway, 385-390 whp is about right for a 997.1 GT3. The 997.2 GT3 runs in the 405-410whp range. The 3.8RS 420-425 whp. The 4.0RS 455-460 whp. These are the numbers I have seen on dynojet for these cars. 2003-2004 996 GT3 360-365 whp.

NJ-GT my pleasure, I will inform on the forum of such a date. I trust that Champion has no problems with that. Fingers crossed for an Excellence article.
Oh and btw not to change subject too much but to another discussion looks I would need to bring you along when shopping for that Scud

Amazing cool stuff...this is the way to mod!
I just can't I imagine all this....I'm waffling around trying to figure out how to afford KW shocks and GT3 brakes as an upgrade to my GTS....heck I'd be happy with GT3 shocks.....Wow what a project your car will be...wish you the best with this.

I thank you all for the compliments but trust it has been and still is stressful and nerve-racking. It becomes hard to concentrate on work. There's always something to think about the project and ask about this and that plus what's going on?
The next guy will have a much smoother course.
