I'm looking for a lightly used porsche. I initially was looking for a 996 turbo, but i guess the 997S is in the same price range. I've seen the 0-60 of 3.9sec for a NA car not bad! I wont be buying new (never do) and seriously doubt that i can find a used X51 car.

A good porschephile friend swears that X51 is all marketing BS. He rec'd aftermarket airflow or a 9ff powerkit

Anybody here driven an X51 car AND a reg 997S??
how do they compare?

How about a 997S with a similar aftermarket powerkit?

Is +40Hp realistic w/ only airflow mods, cams and a chip??
