    Hey guys! Today on the show, I drive a Porsche 911 (997) Turbo, putting down around 500 HP and 500 LB/FT of Torque to all four wheels. With the help from a few bolt-on parts and tuning from our friends down at Protomotive, this grand touring version of the 997-generation 911 is just about everything you could ever want out of a daily sports car. It's quiet when you want it to be, comfortable all the time, and best of all it's got kick-you-in-the-back kind of torque that just never lets up. Enjoy! - Marcus

    I always love the people that dig on a Turbo Tip...its a 911 Turbo, those hands belong on the wheel.

    I still want that 911 Turbo(997). Every time I see one featured I get concerned that none will be left when I do decide to get one.

    Mezger engine in the 996 (2001-2005) turbos and 997.1 turbos (2007-2009) is going to be very long lived and will help these cars hold value. Having said that, they built a ton (+/- 20K) of each of the 996 and 997 models, so I don't think they go up in value like prior generations of turbos (930, 964, 993) that had +/- 5K production run figures. 996 t and 997.1 t's = great cars to buy, maintain and drive to 200K+ without the guilt of destroying a low mileage porsche turbo. If you own a low mileage 964 or 993 turbo, how many miles are you ever going to feel good about putting on those vehicles?

  • @s20ttv
    @s20ttv 4 роки тому +11

    I’ve got to be honest. I found your review disorganised, contradicting and lacking any real output. You should have totally dismissed a 1000bhp modified 996 and talked about the 997 independently. I couldn’t work out if it was slow, fast, old, new, sends you to sleep or not. A shame as 997 turbos are an absolute epic drive and you didn’t relay that.

      I found this while 997 shopping last year, and came away wondering why he wouldn't at least have done the 997 review first... The obvious big impression left in his mind by the 1000 hp, casts a shadow over the 997's review as something of an "also ran".

  • @cutdepiefails6596
    @cutdepiefails6596 5 років тому +2

    By the way, esmotor has a GREAT tune for the tiptronic, not gt3 rs pdk fast, but 997.2 pdk fast or even slightly faster.

  • @allanlai_
    @allanlai_ 5 років тому

    997.2 pdk (in standard C2 form) is even more quiet. The shift also has some delay unless you are in sports plus and really on it. Daily normal drive the delay is just as bad as tip, although the gear change itself is much more crisp than tip. In terms of noise, 997.2 pdk is very quiet unless you rev it past 4K and have a sports exhaust. 997.1 tt is louder, but quality of noise is not as good, so aftermarket exhaust is a must.

  • @Tain950
    @Tain950 5 років тому +1

    Sounds crazy but the way he’s describing this car it sounds like a mini Bugatti Veyron. Good power yet very smooth on the street

  • @ZDY66666
    @ZDY66666 5 років тому

    damn, the turbo's really are quiet. Has that nice turbo whizzing / whoshing noise (kind of too sharp for the ear). But all of that flat 6 is gone ! Not sure how i feel about that, the power must be nice though.

      @alansmilealot 5 років тому

      @Chasing Adventures trust me it's actually very natural. The new clutches are lighter too, but it's more interesting watching a video with someone shifting vs just turning the wheel. Still great video though

      Theres a right up on rennlist with wiring schematics. Uses mb shifters found on ebay for 130 and the wiring is minimal
