I have had my 2012 Turbo S tuned for about 60k miles along with the BMC air filter and IPD plenum (since about 2017 when warranty was done). The reason I tuned it was to keep up with a lot of the "modern" cars which have so much more power and performance. On a good DA day, it runs about 11.3@124MPH which is decent enough to say relevant. Hard to believe we live in a world where running 0-60 mph in under 3 seconds is so common. Curious how yours is performing with those additional mods on the turbos. Of course, the Turbo S ones are already larger than the standard Turbo but was definitely interested to hear about your results.

Of course!
2022 Panamera4 ST: M-engineering stage 2 tune. Secondary cat delete. Just enough power. Better than OEM power delivery. Beautiful sound. My favorite daily driver.

For me I don't think I would benefit with my 16 GTS , Car has more than enough factory power than anyone would ever need ! All a tune would do is change the power band , I don't use any where near the power available from this car ?

Then the stories when selling ?

Speak for yourself haha. To shamelessly steal from Mark Donohue, a car only has too much power when it can spin the tires the entire way down the straight.

No, a tune will actually increase the power output. (area under the curve)

Because the EPA is increasingly coming down on so called "tuners", and you just know they are seizing customer records.

Isn't your car with the new 2.9 engine? According to M-engineering they do not have a tune for the new twin turbo engine.
