Default Switzer 997TT Sledgehammer runs 9.79 @ 146.42

Run breakdown:

60 ft. - 1.66 s
1/8 ET 6.497
1/8 MPH 117.07
1/4 ET 9.796
1/4 MPH 146.42

driftbox says 0 - 60 in 2.9 sec, 0 - 100 in 5.2 sec, 60 - 130 in 4.9 with 2 shifts.

Car was full weight on 19" HRE P40's with Toyo R888's at full tire pressure. No tweaking, just driving the car exactly the same way it is driven on the street.

Wow! Veyron acceleration!

How much power would it be making and how much would it cost to replicate that performance?

Is this a 'kit' or some kind of package?

The car makes 850 rwhp/ 727 rwtq. It is a bolt on kit available from Switzer Performance Innovation. He hasn't released a price yet, but i am guessing somewhere around $50K for the kit. But it is one hell of a bolt on kit!

$50K+997TT makes for one helluva deal compared to $2M (CDN) for the Bug.

This is the kind of car you roll up next to a moderately modded Supra Turbo in and just yell out the window, this isn't a race, it's a rally!!!! And then pull 20 cars on him.

Check out YouTube Supra Turbo vs Porsche GT2 Gumball 3000, and you'll see that happen in real life! Respect!
