15847257[/url]]Last variable is gas. For some reason, Shell gas around LA is known to make measurably less power than 76 or Chevron. Not saying that I know what gas was in each car, but it's one significant variable.
Has anyone else found this to be the case? I’ve always considered Shell to be “top tier” & use 93 from there pretty regularly.

It's top tier as far as consistency and quality/detergents, etc. But at least with Cali 91 oct, I've had both Road Race Engineering and Church Automotvie Tuning tell me Shell Cali 91 octane has the least detonation resistance.
I just wrapped up a day of tuning at World Motorsports' dyno in LA. Jon from Dyno Spectrum did the tuning. I have a 991.2 Carrera T with Kline headers, Soul cat bypass pipes, and the factory Porsche Sport Exhaust (PSE). The car made 477whp and 536wtq. A gain of 78 whp and 171 ft lbs. Overall, I'm pleased to say the least. The car hits hard down low and pulls strong all the way to 7k.
Damn! That's so impressive! Especially torque numbers! Im arranging to get mine tuned as well. Looking at headers and cats too.
100+ hp with a tune .. I dont believe the results.
Heck if I could get 60 HP in a little pee pee 1.6 liter Honda Civic with little dinky single turbo with a flash tune 100 hp in 3.0 L twin turbo Porsh seems low.
Only the sound and at times in the corners. I prefer the power delivery coming from the T. I think my T has close to 200 ft lbs more tq than the GT3, which is crazy to think about.

Thanks! I imagine you'll get close even with high flow cats.
For this who have dyno’d-are you on a bmc filter, or running the stock at this time? I am on stock and on the fence with getting the bmc. Evidently the stock unit flows really well and at $40-50 a pop to replace every 15-20k miles I don’t know that bmc is worth the upgrade at $300...if there was performance to be gained that would be a different story but from what I understand it’s little to none over the stock unit...

Im running the AMS filter. It enhances sound for sure and the car breathes better. I doubt it adds more than 5-8 hp peak, but sharpens up the car a little and there is a BMC on the marketplace for a decent deal.
Dyno next week. Hoping for 450 hp like you guys but not running Cobb (GIAC) and I still have 200 cell cats.

I am running the stock filter. I'll swap to BMC or AMS when I need a new filter.

Good luck! I hope your jaw drops after the first drive like mine did.

Definitely dropped to the floor. Its a beast. I got new tires as the p zero cant handle all the torque. When you punch it it rips your face off, especially if you're already pre-spooled in low gears; claws for traction in a straight line in second gear all the way to redline. 100-200 kph its faster than a 2019 panamera turbo and a full second faster than a stock targa 4 gts with pdk (according to the dragy leaderboard). Just with a stage 1 map.
Curious to see how it compares to the mustang dyno over here on Friday. I dont think were gonna see it go as high as these examples. The 60-130s (mid 9s) are nowhere near 500 hp cars even heavier ones. However, they make at least 400 guaranteed, probably a bit more.
