I have a 996tt - not sure you are not doing it right -
Mine is a 2003 996TT - it is a phenomenal car. Supercar, connected.
Fast -
And I've come from a long list of aircooled cars.
Stock they are 415 hp - mild tune and I'm around 500 HP. the Pss9's made a difference as well as bigger wheels and tires... I was considering a cayman s - always felt a little tight - although a great driving car.
With the Turbo you can dial out the understeer with a bigger rear bar (and tire sizes) - In the right hands they will run circles around lots of more expensive cars
