Not sure what the 991RS would do and if the PDK saps some power?
My old 4.0 put down 457hp to the wheels on a dynojet here in Atlanta.

Yep. Grab those last NA engine cars while you can! Go ahead and listen to the dealers and all the doom sayers and be sure you pay 6 figures over MSRP for the last great NA engined cars Porsche will ever make...until the next gen 992 GT3 comes out.

Maybe you will get the expected 30 hp bump, 9200 redline, and a new PDK S gearbox with 9 closely positioned gears.

It's the same morons that were saying that the 991.1RS would be the last NA RS. Give it break already.

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, but what is this GT2 RS+ being tested? Sure sounds like energy harvesting under braking.
