Find me one video of a 992 GTS on a real drag strip with real timing equipment.
No Dragys on public roads.

Seems like the no tune crowd get under your skin. I think anybody can be in the postition (reasonably) that they don't want to risk their warranty on a very, very expensive motor in what is already a very fast car for public roads. One can have this reasonable position and one can also choose to belive a tune is little or no risk and do it to their car. Freedom of choice is great, but just because a person likes thier own choice doesnt make it the best one.
No need for the sanctamonius "do only as I do". That is BS.

I don't care what Joe Blow does with his car, tuning or otherwise just don't tell the rest of us how foolish we are for applying an aftermarket calibration from respected vendors that have proven to be safe and reliable.

I would 100% tune the car if $87k were a rounding error in my life. When I was in my 20s tuning my Supra was no big deal because a short block was only a couple grand.
Kudos to you guys that decline the extra insurance when you rent a car because you have big ***** 😂

point taken but the base/s/gts all share the same motor (differences are turbos, tune, etc plus bigger brakes and trim pieces). base in 379 hp and gts is 473 so adding just short of 100 hp in just hardware seems doable.
