I have been a Porsche fan for as long as I can remember and after years of not knowing what to buy as my first Porsche, I finally bought my first P-car and I'm so happy!!!!

Over the last few years I have looked at maybe buying a 986, 987, 981, 982, 993, 996, 997 and 991 not to mention rattling my brain over what version of 911 would best suit me. After years of hunting for one I finally picked up a 997.1TT. She is bone stock with the renowned Mezger and is just so darn pretty! I actually had this exact car in blue on my laptop computer as a background for at least one whole year straight. It really is a dream come true!

My first mod will definitely be an exhaust so if any 997.1TT owners in the GTA are willing to give me a ride in theirs that have an exhaust they want to share let me know! I'm looking at either a Speedtech 3" Cat or Catless, BBI or Europipe.

Looking forward to meeting my fellow enthusiasts! Pics for clicking even though they are in a poor lit garage and from my cell phone.

 

Congrats! Great looking Turbo!

 

Where did you find her? Mileage?

 

Outstanding Example!!! You certainly bought the RIGHT color!!! Congrats!!

I have and absolutely LOVE my Europipe on my 997.2TTS! Build quality and sound is perfect for these cars. (Just my .02... I know there are many other great systems)

 

Very nice. My second favourite Turbo. Call Jake Raby at Flat 6 Innovations before you buy an after market exhaust. He dynos everything before and after and will tell you what power loss to expect.

 

 

+1 for Kevin!

 

 

Thanks!! Good examples come and go off the market like hotcakes. Start the search!

Thanks!! I will reach out to Kevin.

Thanks!! I will reach out to Jake.

Thanks!! I definitely need to hear a Europipe 1 and 2 in person.

It's a US import that's been in the country for a few years. Most recently Quebec. A little higher mileage (100k) but I have no issues with that. Garage queen cars aren't always the best scenario.

Thanks!!

 

 

Is this with or without Cats? What made you choose the version you did?

 

Mine has the cats, I bought it from a Rennlister. I liked the sound and also felt if I was going to do an exhaust, I would pick one that makes big power. If you talk to Kevin at UMW he will tell you there are tons of exhausts on the market for the 997TT that don't deliver on power. Also there is nothing on the market that sounds like the Speedtech, very exotic. Slightly droney at lower rpm but the high rpm sound makes up for it. Rennlister Cstyles in Burlington has the same exhaust as me, and has some Youtube videos at Mosport if you want to hear his in action.

 

 

I too joined the P-Car world this fall for the first time. Kinda wished it was a Turbo but the incredible condition, options, mods and COLOR was exactly what I was looking for.
Congrats.
It's a great feeling isn't it?

Let the modding begin!!

 

997 TT was a great design. Congrats!
