would anyone care to share what an ECU reprogram does to a 911 Turbo? What is the HP and Torque Increase from Stock?

I'm considering the Fabspeed headers, high flow cats, mufflers + chip which should bring the HP just under 600. I was surprised to see how much HP they left on the table with the TT. Perhaps this was to help upsell the GT2...who knows.

Really Nice!
I was about to buy a 2009 Dark Silver and they didnt want to honor the deal. I would have loved to get the 911 but the catch was I was trading in my C63 and Audi S5 for that one.

Thanks,
This was the deal well let me start off by saying in PR we hax 40% tax so my 63 cost $93k and I was being offered $70 with only 3k miles and I say hell no. S5 was being offered like $60K and I also said NO.

Update on tt
Hi all. Just thought I'd update you guys/gals on my twin turbo progress.
With my C63, I did the KLEEMANN K2 package, nothing more, and nothing more is required IMO. It's a phenominal beast.
I just did a slew of mods for my twin turbo, bringing the 480 stock hp up to 650. But what I thought I'd share are some pics of interior mods that I've done. There are many trim pieces in the turbo, that were just begging to be painted in the exterior color. So everything in red you see has been painted (they were either aluminum or black). Got me to think about what interior painted pieces I could do in the C63, but did not come up with any ideas...anyone do trim besides CF in their C63's?

Not a huge fan of the interior, very bold but if you like it then it's perfect.
The most I would've done is red seat belts/seatbelt housings, might've looked pretty cool just maybe.

^^^I appreciate your support, and it's always nice to hear positive feedback, so thank you.
I think if GENTANI does not like the trim pieces, that's ok.
I have a friend that would give almost anyone car envy. We're talking $M's in cars. He's not done 1 interior mod to any of them, and stated to me that he could care less about the interiors.
I'm still curious if anyone has done any interior trim pieces other than in CF. Doesn't seem as if that "sea of plastic" in our C63's is much accommodating. Maybe I'll ask my artistic brother to paint a mural on that gynormous dash

With software and exhaust the car becomes too fast for the street unless you live by the Autobahn. Check this out. This is just software and exhaust from APR

"too fast for the street" -- sure, if you drive like you're on a track

Taylor you should try the sprint booster in the Porsche and Mercedes. Have you already heard about it? Feel free to email me, I have some in stock for you to try for 30 days. I just put the MT version in today for a 997TT and there is almost zero lag/delay in the throttle now.

However, comparing a GTS to an ML63, I'd go GTS. IMO, the GTS is more over-the-top (which is what one is attempting at this level, no?)
