Part of the beauty of the T is the smaller turbos (less leg, more linear) and the fact that it’s not overpowered for road driving.

Driving through Pennsylvania Rt 15 is similar with some great mountain carved roads. As for the people that inhabit this cut through, not that England way!

@tourenwagen not sure if your intent is to put us all to shame or encourage us to pick up our game. Maybe a little of both. You could certainly do car photography for a living and not starve.

@The911Don that can't be overstated: the small turbos make the T feel the closest to NA. The GTS is closer in character to a turbo than a Carrera. Choose your poison. As capable as they are, I don't want a turbo and I don't want a GTS either. That said, provided the tuner can match the OEM progressive delivery, adding a few bars of boost might be fun without taking away from the character of the car.

I was thinking along those lines as well, but man, look at that torque "curve" or should I say, torque straight line. Granted, his graph seems to start at 2,750 RPM based on the screen behind him, but still, that's a lotta power early and even.

But in general, I'm with you, I prefer the NA powerband.

I'm starting to have convos with M and Softronic about a custom tune that enables me to have my cake and eat it too. I'll report back.
