Anyone with Performance Upgrades on 2.0T Macan?

No, the Cayenne is too large and truck-like in appearance (not appealing), and way too expensive for what you get -- in my opinion. The base Macan with minimal options is an amazingly good buy for the money, at slightly over USD $50k new (with discounts). The only Cayenne or Panamera that I'd ever consider now (having bought a 2018 Panamera E-Hybrid last year) is the E-Hybrid version; the ICE-only versions aren't worth it to me, and the new-generation E-Hybrids are absolutely amazing and really really fun to drive and own. The only Porsche I'll ever buy in the future will be a plug-in (hopefully a Macan E-Hybrid in a couple years) -- no more ICE-only Porsches for me. I considered the 2019/2020 Cayenne E-Hybrid very seriously, but the base Macan won out for being about $30k cheaper (after considering federal tax credit and state rebate for the PHEV) while still having lots of great Porsche qualities.
I believe your wish for future electric powertrain offerings for the Macan (and other Porsches) is well on it’s way to becoming reality.

there's couple of Tuners who can add few more hp's/lb's with just a new ecu map.
I own a 2017 Golf R with 681hps, yes it does have lot's of engine upgrades, but the most important part is ecu tuning. My Golf R maps had been done by the people of United Motorsport, they just reprogram the ecu depending on engine upgrades. I spoke with Jeff couple of weeks ago and he told me already have ecu maps for Macan 2.0 Turbo engines. I will highly recommend them.

btw, I drive my Golf R back and forth when going to the track. My best 1/4 time is 9.89sec.
