9ff has a proven track record with tuning Porsches and the GTurbo 1000 is one such monster. The number does means something, the car is roughly putting down close to 1,000 horsepower! It always amazes me how much power can put squeezed out of those flat six cylinder engines. The 9ff GTurbo 1000 is based off a 997 GT3 RS. The full conversion takes around four to six weeks. Many of the engine components have been upgraded to deal with the stress and heat. All that work allows it to do 0-186 mph in 18.1 seconds. I think the video below shows how fast this thing is.
