Default 2018 GT2RS vs 2019GT2RS Hp difference?
I was just noticing that on the window sticker of my '19 GT2RS, it's advertised as 690hp/553trq and on 2018's 700hp/553trq? Anyone know why? I just picked these two off the net,,,

I think actual power is same, but one sheet is using metric hp rating. Not sure if there’s a legal change that required a different measurement standard.

Higher ADM's for the 2018 - that explains it going back to MSRP

Don't think so - on a turbo motor, they could recover 10hp with 10 minutes of tuning...

Any leftover new 18's out there? I would rather have that than wait for a 19.
