Not yet, I'm not in a terrible rush as I still really like the car. For sure I will miss it's raw acceleration and sheer speed. I'm also still evaluating what to ask for it.
#18
just bolt ons and faster than gtrs mod for mod and power for power.
#19
I've always avoided alternative fuels (in cars) and methanol, so I'd say I'd have to settle for that list minus those items and run it on pump 93 octane.

It’s mportant to note that PDK gearbox is a limitation to high HP builds too. I believe that you’d be fine under 700HP (you should verify this if it’s your goal), but more than that can be problematic. I moved from a 997.1 TT 6MT to a 991.1 TTS with PDK. I like PDK better than I thought I would.

OP, where are you located?
And, Porsches and big HP are not cheap. Like. Scare you not cheap (if you want reliable beyond bolt ons). There are options for the PDK (custom clutch kits).
you need to work with a builder that builds these as a system and knows HOW to do it. Blow a Mezger and you're looking at a 60k+ bill for the motor.

600 is too easy.. Look at this thread. This guy also came from a GTR. He made 545 wheel HP with just a Cobb custom tune, stock everything else. Stock exhaust (600 CEL cats directly behind the turbos), 93 pump gas.

It wasn't until the car made 650 wheel wheel that I started liking it and at 700 it finally feels perfect for my needs. It's too bad that the Cobb OTS maps are always so mild in comparison to what is possible, as evidenced in that thread.

The OP - You sound like you have the same goals as I do when it comes to a 911tt.. I want one around that power level but kept completely reliable too. ( I also used to road race / track day sport bikes as well... assuming that's you in your Avatar)
I came from THIS (sea below vids), and considered a GTR at one point, but a 911 TT is just a bucket list purchase for me (hopefully sooner and later...still shopping)
