How do you like the tune? Best I've done was a 7.85 60-130 on a beta test protune.. I'm probably a tad quicker than that now as the tune is finished.. The car really pulls nice. I'd say 991.2 TTS level, maybe a tiny hair faster.
Good numbers! Only tune? the tune is smooth, the car runs good no problems at all with a peak of around 20.7 psi and then holdsi 19 psi. Always a custom tune will pick up more hp in my experience but not planning to do anything more to this car, thinking in trade for a turbo s on early 2020 and then install intercoolers, exhaust and custom tune.

Basic bolt ons. Good call on the TTS, it's better in most ways.. I'm simply not willing to experiment with bigger turbos on the GTS for more HP.

Are you able to flash back to stock?
Yes, TTS with basic bolt ons are amazing, maybe will try sport cats in the GTS only, it will help to pick up a bit more power and it is compatible with this stage 1 tune.
I cannot do it myself but the dealer’s mostorsport division who installed the tune can do it.
GIAC and champion told me the only mod that picks up 20 hp with their ecu tune is the plenum. They didnt see gains with exhaust mods. Which sucks because guess which mods I have? Lol
Yes, from the Porsche dealer motorsport division. I paid $2k and was ready on the same day. I think they can use the same GIAC tune, based on you have the same turbo now.
I'll find out more when im up there and stop to visit in a couple of weeks, but my Chicagoland Porsche dealer has done a large expansion. My SA there says they are going to be more friendly towards tuning in their new Performance Shop dept, but has no details. Can anybody tell us what their tune-friendly dealer shops are offering, and how that might affect factory warranty?

I would agree that a cat-back exhaust would have minimal gains. But for sure there are gains with headers and high flow cats on the 991.2 3.0L turbo engine.

Thats what I think too. It wasnt clear if they tested headers. Was given more of a general explanation. Although they did say the way the tune is mapped, it keeps all of the stock adaptations for octane, bolt ons, and atmospheric conditions etc. The car should in theory uncork itself on the street. Not sure if its easily picked up on dyno pulls.
So only tried once 60-130 was 9.7 in my stage 1 manual T, and the 100-200kph was 8.3 (same as stock gts with pdk). I think it can do better but Manual makes it even trickier. Your guys cars are nuts.
