No, you are not seeing double. We did in fact feature some of these same photos a few days ago when we brought you Promotive’s 900 HP package for the 997 Turbo, but pop open the hood of these cars and what you’ll find is a completely different setup. While the previous package for the Porsche pumped out 900 racing ponies, this new package by Arkansas-based Porsche tuner, Protomotive, delivers a much tamer 750hp. Okay, tame may not be a suitable word for an engine that produces 750hp, but this engine setup does provide for a more leisurely ride than the first one, so the use is validated. In order to obtain the 750 HP output, the tuner is offering less drastic modifications with a modified VTG, custom engine tune, custom transmission tune, TUBI exhaust, and FABSPEED air intake. Next to the engine update, Protomotive also fixed up the exterior with a new wing, air side inlets, new mirror caps, a new front spoiler, grills, and gas cap, all made in carbon fiber. Carbon fiber is also offered for the interior with the back seat cover, A/C surround, center console, and door panels covered in the stuff. New performance numbers for the Porsche 997 Turbo haven’t been announced yet, but we can’t imagine that a modified 3.8 liter flat-six engine producing 250 more horsepower than its standard brother would make for a small jump in performance. .

 lol unless your running from a sledgehammer.....damn if i had the money to get this car i would certainly drop 18k for the 750hp package because that other package would be suicide for myself and my wallet.
 well for me the red interior looks great specally when added with black thread and interior lights such as dash guages and lights.

 IMO GT-R way far better than the Porsche.. It cheaper and fast plus you can hack the system to gain more speed and performance.
 Personally If I was going to spend 85 grand or more on a car I wouldn’t base My only decision on lap times of a professional driver. I’d buy the car that’s fast, comfy, and fits my style and personality.
