Hey all
Don't usually post about cars but this caught my eye... My boss is a total car nut and owned pretty much every exotic car from Ferrari's to Lambos, but his latest passion is Porkers. must be tough being rich
He already has a 997 that has had about 20-30k thrown at it via engine and suspension mods, which is kicking out 550hp
(i refuse to ride in it and it's apparently left GT3's standing at track which aint bad for a turbo) but now has gone a step further..
He just bought a 2009 Cayman S purely as a track toy, and first thing he did was put on rollers and it was putting out 296bhp, sounds tame... then the crazy fool has put a turbo on it, lowered it, new suspension, new brakes and had it re dyno'd at 485bhp.
Here is a piccy of roughtly what it looks like, I must get piccys of his next time he comes into office and post 'em up as this is a stock one..his apparently is already sporting bonnet vents and other riceness lol

Anyway sorry to ramble about someone elses car.. I just can't imagine what this is gonna be like to drive, a TRUE wolf in sheeps clothing and there is no way in hell I'm gonna have a ride as cars like this scare me deeply.
Is a turbo a common mod on these things ?
Sadder story is my work m8 just smashed his 500+ bhp supercharged m3 into a parked car at high speed. Both cars a write off and he was slightly over the limit which means no insurance payout, a ban, 200 hrs community and he has to pay for other car. stupid idiot and such a waste of a awesome car
Moral of this post, a little money can make a great car outstanding, and a few beers can ruin them forever
