Then buy the 4S, Hybrid, turbo, or turbo s.

4S engine is pretty tunable (big tunning community for the same engine being used in the RS5). The base - not as much.

Thanks for the adult answer. Interesting that the base doesn't have a lot of mods. I thought the base engine is turbocharged also. Only thing I saw was exhaust. Surprised there's no tune.

Looking around in the same segment, even the Lexus LS 500 has 416HP.

Maybe give it some time - both the base and S engines are fairly new, it takes some time for tuning to catch up. Check racechip, TMS Motorsport, etc..

From his previous message, I think it's the 972:

Newest models for the Panamera are considered the 971. Let me know on the trim that you are looking for, we would love to set you up with some options.

This is the secondary cat bypass pipes we offer for the V6 (base) direct bolt on, no cutting or welding required.

971 Secondary Cat Bypass pipes

Would this work on an e-hybrid? It sounds great. What about pricing?

Great question, are you local to us here at Fabspeed? We haven't had one in the shop to confirm fitment? I would love to get one in!!
