Its interesting as Im a Rennlist member too but really never posted much of my P car acquisitions there. I think I really only focused on the GT3 there as an OP but my other Turbo's were just posted as part of other threads along with the GTS Cab. I have found that posting here really gives us a sense of understanding of all cars that are good and not just the Roundel. The F10 M5 Versus section was really my home for so many years until this F90 disease got me dizzy in a good way.

Please post threads here too guys; we need it so others and myself can continue to improve our perspective of brilliant cars.

Very impressive ! I’m still amazed that you were able to get 1 of 30ish in Canada. That is an accomplishment ! They are incredibly hard to get (to custom order) in my area and this year we are already at 280ish in the States. My dealer has sold two in 5 years. One in 2016 and mine in 2019.

Well done !

Btw, rumor has it that all 2019 TTS models received the 617 engine hp tune that was developed for the TTS Exclusive. Saved Porsche the cost of two EPA certs. Just badged the TTS 580hp. 131mph seemed very strong in mine. My F90 with RC runs 128mph on the same “strip”.

Well for f#ck's sake, all this time I thought this was an M5 forum as opposed to shared 911 adulation with a tad of car-pic soft porn sprinkled on for good measure.

I jest, gentlemen (and you, Vic)--it's pure jealousy.

You need to go to this section in the F10 M5 Forum--- look at all the Porsche Nut Huggers over the years. Hey what can we say, we like great cars BMW and others alike.

Oh my seeet Lord I hope you are right T! I was wondering why your car trapped so high in your DA! As you know - as soon as possible - I will test this out thoroughly...

Thanks T - I am fortunate I get around in the car circles where I’m from - and some people like me enough to introduce me the right people who had an allocation. I feel very fortunate.

Thank-you sir. I promise not to post too much about it here. I love my F90 M5 CP!

Drove that car everywhere (with a tool box in the trunk) every day for years. Now I think a 2017 ZO6 has too much road noise....
^Lol- you and I have become the same person...

Back to the 617 HP tune...but I will be honest with you (as you see in my post responding to your results) - I was honestly shocked. TTS are anywhere between 10.5 to 10.8 1/4 ET at 128-131 MPH. With your DA - I honestly thought you would be in the 10.7ish range at 128-129 MPH. The evidence seems to indicate that these rumors may be true (or maybe more to the point I want them to be true as a guy who isn't modding lol). But seriously - using your M5 as a benchmark - you should not be at the quickest end of records for the TTS - and - quick frankly - you are.

I want you to get that TTS ready ASAP before the heat comes and blow my run into the weeds ! I honestly hoped my TTS pure stock would match my RaceChip F90. F90 runs 10.8's at 128mph at the same 'strip'....about what it should. My ZO6 ran 11.4 at 126 on a prepped NHRA track near by. The TTS running 2.5 0-60mph on two different days cracks me up. BTW, did you win the tire lottery ? I lost (Pirelli's) but they are N1's and are MUCH better than the older ones on my X5M. They are still at 42psi front and 52psi rear hot. Some better 60's coming with lower pressure !

Like yourself...I am all about the data. If it holds - I may be in 10.4x range...maybe even a high 10.3x as you and are about 1-2 tenths and 1-2 MPH apart with similar cars due to your horrid DA. I will be at the track early-mid May which is still cool here. The fact that the stock record is 10.46 and you ran a 10.51 (@ 131 no less) - at your DA - tells me your theory/rumor is true.

And...this time - I DID win the lottery! Unlike the F90 - I got PS4's this time...so that was a pleasant surprise...

T - it makes sense to me - the 617 HP...There is something about the claim that makes sense to me. Last year of the 991.2. This is his first car to over perform compared to the average. The 617 HP Exclusive was the last Turbo S before the 2019's.

We shall see. I think a sub 7 second 60-130 will also speak volumes here.

I'm first on the list for the 992 turbo to replace the F90 as my daily. It looks amazing and just hope it doesn't weigh much more than the 991.2 Turbo.
