BHP is only one aspect of it. The torque figures are monumental even by today's standards on these mezger engined 996/997's
With Variable Vane turbos on the 997 it hammers out the grunt like nothing else.
Always remember that as each new 911 appears with increased power so does the kerb weight increase.
I well sorted 997 with a mild 550bhp will spank most things on 17-plate.
