Yes, I am not worried about any potential loss of performance. I am just suggesting that 992 GT3 is intentionally detuned to differentiate it from the more expensive 991.2 GT3 RS and I am also suggesting that further detuning was done to differentiate the GT4 RS from both the 991.2 RS (-20hp and -15ft-lbs) and the 992 GT3 (-10hp and -15ft-lbs) for marketing reasons (more than plumbing issues with the layout).
All 3 models have fundamentally the same motor with slight plumbing differences (as well as Speedster and GT4 RS Clubsport).
It would be quite a coincidence if the plumbing changes resulted in such exact round number differences in both power and torque among the 5 models, don't you think

With this dealer, I placed a deposit on a 4 RS four years ago and with another dealer SIX years ago (this month, in fact), and I still doubt I'll get an allocation.

When I spoke with my dealer a few weeks ago, they gave me the strong impression that ED was a bonus for them, because they get another allocation (not necessarily of the car you buy, but another allocation), and so they put that in the Plus column for me as a customer interested in a GT4 RS.

Looks like slightly modified wheel carriers bring the increase in track widths, as wheel offsets and sizes are the same.

Some info I’ve seen suggests 7mm Front, 8mm Rear.
AP did mention front track being increased, (and you can see it just by looking at the car vs casual GT4, but he didn’t specifically mention much about the rear in the launch video though.
Initially I thought this might have just been down to revision in arm lengths via larger LCA inner, which is an easy thing to do.
