Today we just take the Porsche 996 Turbo S and drive, not much talking just having fun doing what we love! The awesome sound of my Porsche comes from a TechArt Exhaust! #porsche996 #porsche996turbo #porsche911

I've had my 2001 996 turbo for 8 yrs now, its a constant delight. I've also added the TechArt Sports exhaust which is really nice, great sound. Fitted 16/24 larger turbos and ECU remap, so around 560 BHP. Prefer the looks of the 996 to the 997 turbo, despite the headlights (which I actually like) Pinky Lai designed the 996 turbo and the 996 and it saved Porsche. All these are set to increase in value as people begin to appreciate the unique and iconic look. Best bang for you $$$$ out there in my opinion. Buy one now before prices increase further, they've gone up around 20% in the last 6 months.

my best friend has a 997 turbo, lovely car and very competent, but the 996 turbo delivers the power in a more visceral manner, and as I said in my previous comment, I prefer the classic look of the 996 turbo, its cleaner and less fussy. Enjoy your car!! I'm in the UK, so we have decent 99 octane fuel!!!

Ironic I looked for both of these cars an 05 was Almost impossible to find with only 1,500 examples world wide, I also looked for a super low mile x50 as well I looked at he 993 too expensive for one particular one I wanted looked at a 997 ehhh i passed as well . The 991 was amazing but then I opted for a 992 turbo s very happy with my choice it’s crazy how much the 996 has gone up in the recent years that sucks for me:( but congrats to the owners they say the 993 was the last real Porsche obviously they have not driven a X50 or Last model years turbo 996 I even while I was in the market for the 996 turbo s I had no idea how low the production was literally and it’s funny because I’m in my G82 M4 competition right now and I saw a 996TS and we had a little fun on the 60 mile drive 18-19 minutes 😂

I love to see the love for the 996, mine was the best sounding car I'd heard with a Kline but that sounds raunchy! Maybe even better. Tip for the wise. This car absolutely comes alive with a bit of tuning, I've often tuned cars and then fallen out of love and sold them because the modified car is unreliable, expensive and less well rounded to own (clearly I don't learn and still can't resist with the next one). However, the 996 turbo is a car that was just meant to be experienced with over 600hp. You don't have to go wild, but up the boost to 1.2-1.4 bar and get yourself some 997 GT2RS intercoolers to keep that inlet temperature down and not overstress the cooling system. The car just comes alive. The pull now, from 40mph in 6th (because it's no longer trying to avoid boost), to the mid range sledgehammer and the final couple of thousand rpm war cry. It's an emotional experience. P.s. you'll also be needing 997 turbo/ 996.2 GT3 350mm brake upgrade after you run this power. You'll be arriving at a lot more corners, a lot faster than you were!

@poff93453 жыл бұрын
You will not regret tuning it. Chassis, engine, the whole car feels made for it. It loses nothing over a the standard car, but up the boost and the engine just comes alive. Feels so much more characterful, free revving. Unchained it stops feeling GT cruiser and starts feeling Porsche GT. I only wished I'd done it sooner.

@poff93452 жыл бұрын
@@hatemsgarage My car still has the standard rev limit so it's only recorded 0.13s overrev (probably me), becomes meaningless if the rev limits have been raised but UK tuners don't tend to do that. It's PLENTY fast with map, manifolds, exhaust & intercoolers. More revs sound fun but the rods and valves are beefier (read heavier) than a gt3. Engine builds are expensive
