there is a flash for about $1200 and it only works well with a new plenum and full exhaust with hi-slow cats. say $4000-5000 all in... A

Shed some weight. That's free. Take out all the sound deadening, back seats, interior bits that you don't need. Look at the GT3 for inspiration. George

......and then comes the magic question.....what HP did the dyno show? Did you do a before and after dyno??? When I had my 99 996 and a portfolio that had something in it....I spent about $5K for the RSS plenum, EVO intake, GIAC flash, Schnell mufflers and some other goodies.....I'd be lucky to have picked up 40 HP. It's simply not worth it spending that kind of money chasing a few horses around. Alex at SharkWerks finally told me that if I wanted the sort of power a turbo would produce, that I should buy one.....so I did. There's really no such thing as cheap horsepower. The use of those two words together is an oxymoron....at least in the Porsche arena.

Sell it and buy a turbo? There is no "cheap horsepower" on a Porsche.
