Default The 991 GT3 is fast!!

no kidding, it is even faster with an IPE full exhaust!
Pretty much better and faster than any other car costing twice as much!

Vbox numbers tested by urs truly :
stock 0-100km/h 4.1 seconds. 100-200km/h 8.6 seconds.
IPE : 0-100km/h 3.7 seconds. 100-200km/h 8.3 seconds.
While testing against a Speciale, the Fcar costing 3 times more only managed to pull a car length ahead after 120km/h.

IPE 991 Carrera S sounds brutal already. When is the GT3 sound gonna come out, def gonna sound insane. Hopefully its gonna be under 10k for full set and no lost in torque.

GT3 and Speciale parked in front of a McLaren and Aston shop... You've got all the bases covered!

geez your numbers are way slower than the claimed ones and those gotten by car mags...

i thought the 0-60 was supposed to be 3 seconds???

id like to see your reaction if you were getting the results you should be! lol


and even 8.3 seconds is not very fast at all for 100km/h - 200km/h. i went better than that in my m5 (7.1 -7.3s),


you only raced to 120 km? try racing to 200 or 240.

you only raced for like ~3-4 seconds. not really long enough to see the difference between those 2 cars.

Did you use launch control on your dead digs? Your times indicate no...

Shaved .4 seconds from 0-100kph? With just an exhaust change? If it's a legal exhaust then I'm sorry but I don't believe it. 10-15 hp from an aftermarket exhaust is huge. 10-15 hp will NOT give you that much more performance. Maybe the guys at sharkwerks or fabspeed can comment on this claim?

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe one or two tenths would be more reasonable. I am not discrediting the exhaust, but I would be curious to the launching methods of the GT3. Sounds like 4.1 to 60 is a little sluggish for the 991 GT3. I would think it would do around 3.7-3.8 to 60 real world.

Even a 6gt3 with stock exhaust on a good day real world can do 3.9 0-100 km/hr. Were U testing going uphill? Were u in auto mode or manually shifting b
