Lately I feel like my cars low end torque even in sport mode is not as good as it used to be. I know that naturally aspirated 911 are known for not having great low end torque as it is . but it feels extra worse lately . any real ways to improve it? Its 2010 PDK c2s . thanks

Downshift!

I would Plus 1 but a Down 2 may be more appropriate.

When's the last time your plugs , coils and filters were changed? Also, sometimes the weather is a contributor...

I was looking for some performance tweek.. Downshifting is pretty obvious lol

Johnny DB

Been there with performance tweaks...there's not much you can add on NA engines other than a turbo or supercharger that will give you very noticeable torque gains.

If it feels down from where it was the plugs and coils are definitely a good place to start. Spark, Fuel, Air.

+1. New coils, plugs and injectors made a huge improvement in mine. My other car is an LS3 Corvette which is a torque monster, so I really notice the lack of grunt in the 997 (mine's a 3.6 6MT) but then again in the Vette I miss the rev-happiness of the Porsche. My 3.6 does pull from about 1000rpm in 4th without lugging, but that's with easy throttle application, not mashing it.

What's the delta from 'what it used to be' till 'lately' and how many miles?

Perhaps it could be psychological and you just got used to the power. What mods do you have? IPD time?

Its pretty stock. No mods. Maybe its psychological .. I had 2 coils and plugs replaced last year. Going to do 60k mile service next month. Maybe just needs to freshen up

My 43k Mi 3.8 S has a slight stumble when AC is on upon starting from rest.
