Late model Carrera Turbo X50?
Heading to a meeting this morning, I came up behind a late model (996) Carrera Turbo that also had a plate on the passenger side of the engine lid that said "X50." It also seemed to have a different wing configuration, but looked very "factory".
Is there such a thing as an "X50" Turbo? Just curious.............

It's an option on the TT - factory-chipped for more boost, with a few more HP. I think it also has a motorsound package (drilled airbox).

yes, better turbos and such, they run with 456hp as opposed to the 420 stock. It's a way to bridge the gap between gt2 and 996 tt
