Help? Cobbed GTS vs. Turbo stock builds
Have to put in my final build in the next few days. Could use specific insights.
Builds
GTS 87k MSRP
http://www.porsche-code.com/PJML6FJ6
Turbo 96k
http://www.porsche-code.com/PJKG3Z40
Both similar in look, and options. Would plan to chip the GTS probably not soon the Turbo.
1. Any strong views on the build welcome
2. Have read most of the threads on the impact on Cobb on both and looking for greater low end torque (less lag) that GTS has stock. But can't find a good discussion of Cobbed GTS vs Turbo.
I drove both stock for a day each so have a sense of what I want. Basically the handling of the GTS with the pickup of the Turbo. Can I achieve that with a Cobb GTS.
I'm driving I could not see the difference in street driving with and without PTV+ so left it out. No LEDs have the xenon on my 997.2 TTS and love them. PSE I can do without even if I do like it. May be wrong on all of that but want to get the build right and fun. Don't want to be frustrated at a red light.
I know I'm never getting a TTS but still want some fun... legal-ish of course.
Any thoughts general or specific welcome.

Get the PDLS+ on the GTS. It's extremely cheap and it looks the bomb. PSE is standard on the GTS. I've never driven a Cobb chipped GTS but the handling of the GTS is far superior to the one on the Turbo, and the acceleration feel seems to be very similar to the Turbo with that tune if you look at the torque curve on the dyno graph
