Few shots from my last drive a couple days ago to visit a friend I've known and went to school with since 6th grade. He's done quite well for himself. Awesome home and a 4200 square foot garage. With the toys to match.
Well, I got off early last night because I was dying to test my car again since I installed the 3 bar MAP sensors to test the OTS Stg. 3 - 93 oct. tune on my Cobb. I Also wanted to test the OTS Stg.2 - 100 oct. tune, since I put a few gals of 109 in the tank to keep things safe and cool. Ended up testing the Stg. 3 - 91 oct. tune also..more on that later.
After 1am and nobody on the roads in Mexico. Let's start with my best run (Stg. 2 - 100 tune) at a 6.93 (60-130) with THREE PEOPLE IN THE CAR!!! My GF and her daughter wanted to go since they've been cooped up in the house all this time. So I had an extra 200+ lbs. in the car with me. I'm already heavy at 6'2" and 270+ lbs.
Watch till the end of the vid....LOL. We were let go.. I can explain on PM's...lol
I bought a used set of the Black w/silver lip versions to put one and had brand new PS4S's installed.
I have everything needed to do the swap except the dang Torque Wrench I ordered. Covid has it delayed.
I can't run them until I can swap them.
@Big Swole, I will admit, ever since you bought your 7.2 Turbo and started this thread ~2 years ago, I've had a bit of Turbo envy. Following this thread and your upgrades has been a catalyst for me to find my next, somewhat more modern Turbo....
Well it took two years to find just the right one, but this morning she was loaded on a truck and is inbound to me as we speak.
For right now, the 996 Turbo is staying put, and I'll start my own build thread shortly, but just wanted to say thanks for the motivation!

HOLY SNIKIES PAUL!!!!! WOW!!
I'm SO happy for you yet SO jealous at the same time!!!!!
You know how badly I've wanted to upgrade to a 991 TTS. Don't get me wrong. I LOVE my 997.2TTS and it's such an awesome car, but my love for the newest performance keeps me wanting a 991.
Anyway, I'm in a good position with mine (financially) at the moment and just can't justify (for my income bracket) upgrading right now, but I really am glad you waited and did an Awesome job to get exactly what you want in that 991TTS.
I absolutely LOVE the spec brother!! Share a few more details here when you can. As well as post your thread if / when you start one. I'd LOVE to follow it.
Also, thank you for following my thread and letting me know if was an influence on you. I have to give credit to YOU though. Had you not turned me onto that 996TT I bought that I was able to flip for a bit of a profit, I'd not have purchased my TTS. Thank you Sir!!!
