Default Porsche!!!

I raced a 2004/5ish Porsche Carerra from a 10mph roll... when i punched it i went over a bump and spun a little but as soon as i caught traction i was dead even until we let off at like 100ish...It was sick!

I have Headers, o/r x-pipe, flowmaster cat-back, cai, bumped timing, adjustable fuel pressure regulator...

I Dyno at 207hp and 272tq...

I tried to race a newer Boxster, but the guy was old and he gave me the look like, you're not worth my time []. If only he knew...

Hmm...doubtful it was a Carrera. Those things are smoking. The 911 is my favorite car. Always will be. They are built so solid, extremely reliable, fast, handling is a dream, fast, did I say fast? etc...

The older boxsters like 1998 were a POS imo. The new one isn't bad, but I still don't think it deserves to be a porsche. [:'(]

I don't think the Carerra is really fast. The consultant I use for our R&D grants has a 96 or 97 seriously modded 911 turbo. He used to fly by me like I was standing still. He tells me my stock 05GT would have been pretty even with a Carerra (until we hit a cuvre, of course). [&o]

I've done a few mods since then. We did a short run in front of my shop last week.



He still beats my ***........[&o]

My mistake, Now that I read the other posts, I do beleive he said Boxster....
Is the Carerra in fact the 911T? If it is, then there is no way you can hang with one. I've got more mods and he can still hand me my *** with a 96T
