Default Overboost???
Hi guys was looking at this car, seems nice at a pretty good price. But I have not heard of turbo overboost option?? Is that factory or aftermarket???

Check the carfax, it's been in an accident. I was wondering why it was priced aggressively. BTW with sports chrono it puts out 500HP

IIRC, with the 997.1 TT over boost feature of Sport Chrono only increases torque, no change to HP.

Oh yea??? Well that would explain the price, i wonder if it was just a fender bender or something more serious.
