In case you were wondering where the car at APR ended up. The power is a bit over 700whp and the car ran a 10.1@140mph on MP4S tires in 100 degree weather.

The GT3 is considered a pinnacle in the Porsche line-up, but it stands no chance against a tuned 991.2 GTS in acceleration. 4 Point 0 demonstrates what over 600hp will do to a GT3 in a roll-race in the link below to a video posted on our Facebook page.

We thought a good way to celebrate a Friday would be to watch 4 Point 0 walking away from a 630hp Lamborghini Performante in a roll race. The video is in the link. We hope you enjoy your weekend.

What 700whp will do in a 991.2 at the drag strip in the middle of an Alabama summer. Thanks to our customer Cosmo1 for the video.

We like 4 Point 0 because he pushes everything as hard as he can on the track. Anyone who can turn the calipers brown on even the Brembo Big Brake Upgrade is driving very hard! He's been pushing our headers just as hard of course.

It’s kinda a bitter sweet moment. I choose the Brembo GTS BBK because they aren’t painted. The metal has gone that colour. My Stock OEM Porsche brake callipers also went brown.

i may have to go Brembo GTR. I hope the nikel plating doesn’t go brown. I’ll be pissed! 🤣

Loving your headers and turbo inlet pipes.

just installed the coated headers on my car. I have soul cats and x pipe (non pse), pro tune by mike botti. Pre headers was putting down 431WHP (dynojet reads low), same dyno after headers and re-tune, putting down, 444WHP. but the torque increase was somewehre in the neighborhood of 40lb ft. And the turbo's spool so much faster. Car feels and sounds like a new car.

We greatly appreciate the feedback. It gives us great pleasure knowing our customers are out enjoying their cars with our products adding to the experience! You appear to be at the limit of the stock turbos, but there are now upgrade options. The 991.2 platform has proved to be fantastic.

We are still in development. We strive to provide high quality, high performance, and high value products and we are not yet satisfied with our design. We are continuing development to gather more data and also get the design to where we are able to deliver at a good value.

We'd like to thank our customers for sharing great pictures and videos with us of them out having fun in their Porsches. F1SML8R is below out at a track day. He has a nice brake upgrade package too on his T for the hard track day usage. We wish everyone many more fun miles in 2021!
