Flat Blue, 800HP Porsche 997 Turbo - Enjoy

crfine88 · 10-02-2009, 07:04 PM

Color looks really good in person.

Kensta335 · 10-02-2009, 07:15 PM

Car looks sick as fuck but it looks like it got wrapped in Blue painters tape.

the color looks like a smurf. ROFL.... but the car is sick

vividracing · 10-03-2009, 03:06 PM

Just hit the dyno today. Did 3 runs. First one the intercooler hose popped off and it made 600awhp. 2nd run did 697awhp. 3rd and final run did 756awhp. We are running this on a Mustang ALL WHEEL DRIVE Dyno with a parasitic multiplier of 1.0. Temp was 82F and we were running a max of 1.5bar on 109octane. You can see the screen shot showing the power... Drag times and 60-130 times coming on Friday night, posting saturday.

The dyno plot shows a dotted line and solid line. The dotted line is our runs before the new 3inch Ypipe, Agency Power Throttle Body/Plenum Upgrade, and Cold Air Intake System. You can see that once the turbos kicked in at 3600rpm, the car pulled MUCH stronger to redline with the new setup. Questions, comments, let me know.

Took the car drag racing. Was a beautiful 80F. I have the perfect car, great weather, and I suck at launching car... Driver Wanted!

Best ET was 11.16. Best Trap was 134.37mph. At 135mph they kick you off unless you have a NHRA license. Comparing times on this site and DragTimes.com, this is a 10.60 car. Soon... Enjoy the video montage.

I also got some PBox numbers. Not excited, but they are decent considering I have never done this before. I expect a faster 60-130mph. I need advice on gear to start in etc. 0-60 and 0-100mph were good expect the terrible launches.

0-60mph - 3.76sec. Goal is 3.5sec

0-100mph - No Goal

60-130mph - 7.14sec. Goal is 6.50sec

That car is INSANE!

Davin · 10-04-2009, 12:05 AM

Great car, the color wouldn't be my first preference though

O-cha · 10-04-2009, 12:07 AM

Car is actually slow for the HP.

Plan B · 10-04-2009, 09:12 AM

If you have a cage in it, you might as well remove the back seats for some weight savings. It's a beast for sure...

1clean335i · 10-05-2009, 08:15 PM

pretty unique!!

Deda · 10-06-2009, 04:41 AM

wow..looks great.

Ender514 · 10-06-2009, 08:45 AM

not bad. its growing on me.

ChrisV · 10-06-2009, 11:36 AM

The color is fine, being basically Mexico blue and all:

I think it's just the flat vinyl that makes it off, especially when you can tell that if you get close, there are bubbles and flaws in the vinyl that would make it look cheap.

Sick car, otherwise.

catch · 10-07-2009, 10:48 PM

im a fan! the color is the best part imo, the skirts arent my thing, nor is the spoiler, but a very nice car none the less...
heres my buddies 800hp 997 with my bike:

The Texas Mile is one of the ultimate tests of a vehicles power, aerodynamics, and the skill of the driver. With all types of vehicles ranging from stock Camaro’s and Shelby Mustang’s to 1000+ horsepower Viper’s and Corvette’s, standing mile speeds range from 150mph to 200+mph. Vivid Racing of Gilbert, Arizona attended the highly anticipated event with their VR800 Porsche 997 Turbo October 16 and 17 after a 20 hour drive to Goliad County Industrial Airport. The flat blue wrapped 997 Turbo was equipped with a full Vorsteiner VRT Aero Kit featuring carbon fiber ducts, diffuser, and front lip spoiler. With HRE P40 Monoblock 19 inch wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires and JIC Cross suspension, the platform was set to deliver power from 0-200mph. The VR800 kit which was developed in house after months of testing on the street, dyno, and racetrack by Vivid Racing, uses Agency Power products consisting of GT3076rs turbochargers and Tial 44mm external wastegates. In combination with a larger Agency Power throttle body plenum kit, 3 inch Ypipe, high flow intercoolers, straight pipes, and custom ECU tuning by Softronic, the VR800 Porsche 997 Turbo was able to put some impressive numbers at the Texas Mile. As the fastest 997 Turbo at the 2009 event, the VR800 ran the standing mile in 196mph. With a 0-60 time of 3.5 seconds and a 60-130 time of 6.33 seconds, the Porsche was well respected by enthusiasts, competitors, and spectators alike.

The VR800 kit is engineered to work and function off the stock engine internals with basic and reliable bolt on components. Utilizing the best and only OBDII flash tuning for the 997 Turbo by Softronic inconjunction with Agency Power performance products, the VR800 kit maintains complete driveability while delivering this intense performance gain.
