Dyno Comparison 2.5TT vs 4.0

Does this exist? Preferably both in GTS trim, and same dyno same day.

Not a dyno. But, tons of graphs from published data:

Thanks for the info.

Wondering how "real world" data compares to published data.

There is some real world performance on the 4.0.

Car and Driver recently tested the manual 718 GT4 1/4 mile time as 11.9 sec, which is the same as the 718 GTS 2.5t PDK 1/4 mile time.

https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews...y-the-numbers/

So I would guess the PDK version of the 718 GT4 will be ~ 11.4/11.5, which I think is impressive, although note tuned stage 1 718 GTS 2.5t is ~11.3s.

So I think at high RPM and higher speeds in PDK form stock GTS 4.0 will be sightly quicker than stock GTS 2.5T for 1/4 mile, maybe 11.6 or 11.7 vs 11.9.

Of course below 5000 RPM the 2.5t will always be slightly faster due to the torque, maybe on mountain roads but this is never the case on the track.
