A few weeks ago, the one-thousand horsepower bolt-on prepared Switzer SLEDGEHAMMER, by Ohio-based tuning firm Switzer Performance Innovation (SPI) made headlines.

SPI does have another less powerful package for 997 Turbo enthusiasts called L4 700/750 Tiptronic package. Surely it is not the 1000 hp SLEDGEHAMMER, but it is still extremely impressive.

Founder Tym Switzer explains: “The SLEDGEHAMMER is a great package, but a thousand-horsepower 997 isn’t for everyone. The L4 700/750 Tiptronic package appeals to a much broader audience, and with the flexibility of the semi-automatic transmission and mild exhaust note, the L4 Tiptronic cars are as much at home in traffic as they are at the racetrack.”

According to Tym, SPI’s L4 700/750 Tiptronic-equipped Porsche 997 Turbo can accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in just 2.5 seconds. Quarter-mile runs are in the high 10’s at well over 130 mph.

The L4 700/750 Package upgrades the 997 Turbo with unique DME software, a pair of VTG V3 turbochargers, SPI’s MONSTER intercoolers, and a competition-style “full-exhaust” system. “This is a very reliable package that’s as easy to drive fast as it is to drive slow. We designed the L4 package to be flexible enough for everyday driving without compromises, and our 700/750 customers are always telling me how easy the car is to drive. They go on the forums and talk up the cars, post Vbox numbers and timeslips - with several cars dipping into the mid 10’s! These guys are having lots of fun with their cars. That’s what we like to see and that’s why we do what we do.”

Numbers are very impressive, so if you the 997 Turbo and want to go head to head with the Bugatti Veyron you can turn to SPI and get the L4 700/750 Tiptronic package for 18450USD.
