The Porsche 997 Turbo has been a huge success for the tuning market. Having owned a 2011 Turbo S and spent time doing R&D on a 2010 Turbo, we have the experience to untame these beasts. With a simple ECU flash, the DFI 997 Turbo gains over 100 horsepower. This is unheard of on any other vehicle and the dollar per horsepower cannot be duplicated. The DFI 6 cylinder, 3.8L engine offers much more to gain then what is in the 500HP engine of the PDK or 6speed cars. The turbochargers come on quicker giving you substantially improved torque, the power delivery is more linear, and the car continues to pull through the mid range all the way to redline. With the substantial performance increase, suprising the daily driveability is also enhanced. The power is there when your foot wants it, but the Porsche never loses its 997 comfortable feeling.
The 997 Turbo DFI comes stock with 500 HP from the factory. Dyno testing on 91oct and in AWD on our Mustang Dyno, there is typically a 20% drivetrain loss. So this means the car would baseline at about 400awhp. This is pretty accurate as a 997.1TT on our dyno makes about 380 and it comes stock with 480. The attached dyno sheet shows the car made 500awhp with the addition of a exhaust and Y-pipe that typically yield a 20-25hp difference. In the end, the car making about 70-80awhp equates to 115bhp gain.
Crank Horsepower Ratings:
Stock Power - 500HP | 480ft/lbs
Stage 1 Power - 568HP | 580ft/lbs
Stage 2 Power - 615HP | 590ft/lbs
