Finally: G-Tech performance results for '02 996tt!
tires were warm, but not hot; traction control was off. Both runs I ran the revs up to about 3500 rpm and dumped the clutch. There was some rear wheel hop and then when the tires gripped, a bit of lag. I got hp numbers, but I don't trust them because I think they were taken in the highest gear, which would give too much aerodynamic loss. So, I will do hp in second gear and do a seperate report. I will say that max hp occured at a rather high 6900 rpm and torque was usually about 40 hp below max hp. Other than that, here are the best numbers:
0-60 3.9
1/4 mile 11.9 @ 122
The my old 993tt felt a bit stronger 0-60 than this car. That air cooler lump had so much torque! But, this car just has more hp. I was expecting a bit better numbers, but as the weather cools and I am able to perfect my launches, I think I can better those numbers, although I am not going to try endlessly at the cost of a clutch!
Enjoy,
