Surprising My Best Friend with His DREAM BUILD - Full Transformation 997 Carrera S

This is best comment by far, does he travel to pa 😂

Yes sir

[@gardolausell5318]

Note to Kevin: You don't have to be in the garage every day for your friends to appreciate you. Sometimes is just about presence you have when you are there. As a viewer I can say we all feel when you are in the vids and how you impact the team as whole. So take it from me watching it 1000 miles aways from a screen. Everybody in that place loves you and you deserve every bit of it. Glad Tj has the opportunity to stuff like this for his people.

i think the best part of this is seeing everyone back together again. please do more collabs Hunt & Throttl!!

Calvin build button. Get this to the topppp!

[@reidy3231]

Having owned multiple GT3s, GT4RS and currently a 991.2 3RS … a 997 Aerokit car is what I have been chasing for some time to do this exact build. Hard to describe how good these cars are. Congrats to Kevin. I’ve seen his posts on Rennlist looking for an aerokit car. Glad he finally had it all come together. Having a 997 factory aero car is a big IYKYK flex in the pcar community. There is a reason these are shooting up in value.

[@ShivaSingh-we7bs]

As a car guy. You not only surprised your best friend but you also really made thousands of us struggling car guys happy with this video. Thank you teej, from all of us. This was a wholesome video.

[@Tennessee_Ron]

TJ if you see this take my advice. Buy a Venom induction heater. Dillion wouldn’t have snapped either of those bolts and will save you hours of struggle and heartache. It will heat your bolts up to a glowing temperature in about 20 seconds and come out with ease.

[@JonathonDelumyea]

Got one best money u can spend touch it to the bolt rapidly heats up and ton easier to get off

[@justinoliver1984]

I absolutely love mine!! Plus with all the different electrodes you can get for it.... Works awesome!! I don't just use mine for bolts.... I've used it on stuck tie rods also.

[@JoseOrtiz_1416]

We use it at work in an industrial setting, and it really does work wonders. We purchased one 8 months ago and it’s made our lives sooo much easier 4 hour jobs are not 30 minutes

Quinn becoming both Throttle and TJ's MVP channel's at once, is some inception stuff right there 😄 Whole project is super dope. But being a throttle fanboy since the early days, and being a witness to Quinn's coming up as an all time MVP, almost brings a tear to my eyes! Go throttle and TJ! Y'all rock!

[@powergray8682]

Jackultramotive did a 200 dollar headunit in his 997 and it worked good

[@ryanwdonahue]

For what that is, and the fact that it's a factory porsche part, that is insanely cheap. Good luck finding a factory stereo head unit anywhere near this price from any luxury/performance brand in 2024.

Everything about this video was awesome and just felt really good to watch. The hype with Throtl helping out, the jokes between the guys, how everyone including meguiars came to support and work on the car, and to top it off, seeing the little one on one time with TJ and Kevin towards the end. Awesome group of guys

[@jayrcso]

This made me realize how much more I want a 997 now. I work for a dealer that has a branch with Porsche right next door and every time I walk in that show room, I just dream. I will have one someday. Such a clean and perfect build. That wheel fitment too 🤌🏼

[@tinyrodent2821]

For a fraction of the cost the 987 S is a superb alternative, many pro-drivers have said they prefer the mid-engine too. If you're close to getting the 997, go for it, but if you want the experience of driving what many would consider one of the best era's of porsche drivers cars, the 987 S is one of the best cars you can get for public roads.

[@519productions3]

[@qikqbn77]

One of the main reasons I still own my 997.1 C4S after 15 years is because of how good it still is. Even when comparing to the latest and greatest from Porsche. The new cars are so good, capable, and fast, that you almost have to be breaking every speed law to really start enjoying them. Whereas the older 997 generation feels exciting and fun when driving slow or fast. Congrats on all the mods Kevin. TJ, you are a class act and a very generous friend. Blessed so you can be a blessing to others. Keep up the great work. 👍🏼👍🏼
