Credible for sure... the .1 Turbo didnt respond to Cobb like the .2 does.

The .2 S actually has different size compressor wheels than the .2 Non S so it gains even more when Cobb is applied.

The .1 non S can be tuned to to match up with a .1 S cause of the same hardware.

Wondering if it's the same car that ran the Hurracan - hard to tell by the badge. Looks like the same track. This car has some M colors on the diffuser whereas the one above doesn't.

Although the Lambo is a beautiful car.... I would be super pissed driving that and getting beaten by a 4 door sedan.... Is it safe to say the it was a 580-2?

In the Porsche forum he posted that he only was on Map 1 in JB4. Not aggressive at all. Impressive.

I was about to ask precisely that question. If he's in FL, pump gas is 93 octane and it's not too hard to get race gas. Map 1 is what, +4 PSI over stock I think.. that's too conservative for that gas. Map 2 provides a decent bump in power. I was tinkering with map 6 but then lost the car. I'll continue with that when it's finally returned to me.

I also saw a Dragy post from Terry (JB4 developer) showing a 10.6 on pump using map 1.

Having owned a 991.1 turbo with Cobb Stage 2, and now having a 991.2 Turbo and an F90 M5, here are my thoughts.

That 991.1 doesn't seem to be exactly running great, even with the DA of 2200. Those numbers are slower than stock. I was able to get 10.3 at 132mph in my stage 2 991.1 Turbo. With that said, the fact that the M5 was over a tenth faster on the same track same day as the Porsche is very impressive.

I'm pretty sure stock for stock, my 991.2 is a little faster than the M5. I got a 3.0sec 0-60 using dragy (2.8sec using 1 foot rollout) stock in the M5. Fastest in my tuned 991.1 was 2.5sec 0-60. Haven't tried the 991.2 Turbo yet.

Planning on JB4 and xpipe for the M5 and Cobb for the 991.2 Turbo in the next few weeks. Hopefully get a chance to test them out once the weather gets a little warmer.

This is good information. Through some people in the Porsche world that I know - I am told the 991.2 is as quick 60-130 as a tuned 991.1 (I'm guessing a stage 1 tune). As I am looking to get into a 991.2 Turbo S - and you discussing COBB - is there direct OBD access now? I thought the ECU has to be removed and configured directly?
