Lolz...with the size of your wheels and a stock SC, YOURS is perhaps the safest 911 out there!

Now, a noob in a 450+hp awd 3500lb turbo? that spells more trouble to me A turbo will only mask your lack of skill. 996 turbo track consumables (tires, brakes, etc) will be more $$ than the SC.

Learning to beat up turbos (ok, maybe just Caymans, or 944turbos.. or Boxsters) with only 180hp will do wonders for the ego.

Since your car isn't stock either, it would make a perfect tinkering test bed to upgrade things as you go along.
