Default Do U think Launch Assist will end up on TT?

The GT2 will have "launch assist" which I think is pretty cool. Basically, it somehow allows the turbo to spool up before launch (like torque braking with a Tiptronic).
I wonder if this will make its way to the 'regular' 997TT ????

It is hardly needed on the TT, which is IIRC the fastest 0-60 production car (3.4 sec) Porsche has ever made to date (including the CGT)

Well that's with a Tiptronic. Launch Assist is for 6-speed.
