Default Suncoast Reduced Price for Powerkit for 991.2

Saw an email this morning about this. Thought I’d post it for anyone who may be interested. Seems like a very reasonable price. No affiliation or incentive. Just a member who receives emails from Suncoast.

Could you imagine if you could get this kit for the Base Carrera?

370 to 450 hp for $5750! Granted you would have to add the bigger turbos too but still.

That kit INCLUDES the larger turbos already.

What is the range of cost for the actual install? $3-4K?

Read Randr's post about his install. I think he was charged 8 hours. He was originally quoted 10-12 hours.

Would send Carrera S sales to close to zero. Porsche takes a $14k premium to go from base to S. Life in the slightly slower lane is just fine.

Do you have to have Sport Chrono from the factory to get this kit added to a manual S?

The differences between a Base Carrera and a S is more than just horse power.. PTV, brakes, 20' wheels etc. are included in S, not in the base one.

My dealer just checked, you must have SC factory installed for this kit.

You can. It's being tested.

I'll have more details to share soon. Plan on doing the same thing.

With a tune on the turbos (which are included for that price) should push 550+ easy. We'll see. Might be fueling issues.

Well you can't. Which is why the 991.2 is such a HUGE step forward in performance
