We usually see 360-370whp on the base model, 380-390whp on the S models and 385-395whp on the GTS on our dyno. It tells us the base model is underrated from Porsche. The S/GTS has pretty significant opportunities from a tuning standpoint (the larger turbos make a big difference up top) but the base model/T is no slouch!

Ha, definitely no slouch!
I was asking about the dynamometer u use, but nevermind I think u used DYNOmite on all ur tests? Also, I like ur utube vids with driving reactions after mods. Keep them up! That’s more important to me than just number estimates from dynos….Last edited by ECNJ; 12-05-2023 at 12:07 PM.

It's interesting to me. I got my 991.2 T with the T package without leather and no RAS. Visiting rennlist pretty much every poll said those are two must have options so I felt like I made a mistake. I thought I corrected the sins by having both in my 992. It's only been a week but I realized those two options don't add any enjoyment for me, easily would've been fine without either. Kinda would rather have had the painted seatbacks in GT silver or alcantara roof liner. Maybe it's just a function of going from 991.2 to 992 but the RAS hasn't been mind-blowing like I expected it to be. In my EQS barge of a sedan it's great but in this application it's kinda been take it or leave it.

What is so interesting? If you don’t want RAS even a coin holder would be more preferable.

Yea, that Eaton roots type supercharger is incredible. There is just so much power at any RPM in any gear. Right now, in the cooler weather, it's just crazy hard to keep the tires from spinning.

I think you will find that's the case in all weather. Those cars were notorious for that.

How accurate is the Porsche tracking app?... I am at the port in Germany... Says will be at the dealer 1/3/24.....

From this stage your expected value is a few days after the target, with a small chance of an earlier delivery (by up to a few days) and a very long asymptote to the right.
For those results that fall to the right, probably 2/3 of the time it will be less than two weeks more, and 95% of the time it will be less than 1.5 months more. (Basically 1-2 guys had their cars stuck at port for months)

I assume we will be on the same boat. My T arrived yesterday and the app says it will be on the boat by 12/16. Waiting game without much action from here I assume.

Once your car gets to the port and loaded, TYD gets less than accurate shall we say. Text your SA and ask what ship your car is on then go find a ship tracker to keep tabs. Depending which port it arrives at the length of time to dealer varies. I'm in Buffalo area, car came in to Davisville, RI on a Saturday and my car was at the dealer's on Monday afternoon.

And this is why we should follow the vehicle run-in instructions in the Owners Manual:
