Hello.
Not sure I understand the title of your post. If you want to hire a GT2, I think you may have some trouble, and they may not take kindly to having it modified [
]
It's hard to say if this is the right place, I think you'll have to form that opinion yourself.
I believe Google sorts websites by popularity (number of hits), so the order Google lists the various sites may give you some indication.
Are you interested in 996 or 993 GT2?
The tuning options are quite extensive and range from moderately expensive to pretty extortionate.
Are you interested out of idle curiosity or do you have somethiing in mind?
As your username indicates, you have heard of 9ff.
9ff like Ruf, do limited numbers of cars a year (like 10-15 new cars, and mods for maybe 50? cars). Therefore, getting first hand experience is pretty hard and impressions are mostly through magazines.
Opinion depends on what your after. Highest speed, fastest acceleration, most useable, most cost effective.
In general though, if you tune the car, it will reduce the life expectancy of certain components.
The more power you have and the closer it gets to a racing car, the more racing-car like the running costs will be.
It' hard to quantify these things, since no-one seems to talk about how long the gearbox, driveshafts, clutch, etc. will last if you increase the power by 50%.

Thank you very much for answer.[]
My car is a 996 gt2 and last year it had a 640hp kit.
Now my car is back at 9ff in Dortmund for a 800hp kit.
I'm last year's Polish Champion in 400m racing in outlaw class Have a look on www.sss.org.pl
I can't find any forum with Gt2 owners, even using google.
If anyone of you should need any advice in Porsche tuning, I can help.
Regards,
Karol

I haven't seen anyone offering more bhp than 9ff.
Although relatively new, they seem the most keen to see how far you can go.
Aren't you going to start getting noticeable lag at 800bhp? The torque must be around 850Nm I guess and the rev limit is higher (titanium con-rods?) with about 1.3 bar of boost?
Do you get bigger tyres with that, since you would be asking a lot of the standard ones.
I think the sales of GT2's in the UK is something like 10-15 per year. It seems that in general only about 10% or less of people that buy the cars get invloved with the internet. Given that the UK is the 3rd biggest market for Porsche, and you could expect maybe 1 internet literate person, I am not surprised you can't find any dedicated sites.
You are, I'm afraid, in a pretty exclusive club.

From 600hp 9ff uses connecting rods but there is few types.
one of them are lighter and more expencive.
boost is 1,5 using kkk26/29.
yes torque is over 850Nm but very late using sharp intake cams.
for racing I use Avon with very soft rubber combination.
For street I use cup pilot or standard pilot sport but just for 5000km
