Carwow has little to no credibility here. We call out their bullshit time and time again. It is all about getting likes and views from the masses though so Carwow creates misleading videos in order to get more views so Carwow can get get car commission sales and that is what this is all about. ...Published on 01-18-2020 08:28 AM
We covered the impact going catless (straight pipe) compared to high-flow catalytic converters on modern Porsches previously. With emissions rules tightening you can still remain emissions compliant while opening the car up both in sound and performance. ...Published on 01-17-2020 05:41 AM
Sure, there are some faster stock motor 991 Turbos out there but you can count them on one hand. The ByDesign Stage IV Porsche 991 Turbo upgrade package impresses considering this is achieved on the factory ECU, factory VTG housings, stock PDK, and stock internal 3.8 motor. ...Published on 01-16-2020 03:52 PM
The 982 chassis already received a naturally aspirated 4.0 liter flat-6 in the 718 Spyder and GT4 models. This flat-6 is based on the 9A2B6 architecture which they stretch to 4.0 liters and dump the turbochargers. ...Published on 01-10-2020 10:02 PM
This is just... wow. You remember back in 2018 when Porsche announced they would build a new 935 to honor their 70th Anniversary, right? Well, somebody specced their 935 with a carbon fiber body and it looks amazing. ...Published on 01-09-2020 08:04 PM
We will get it out of the way now, the GT3 is not a straightline race car. That does not mean it is not fast as the naturally aspirated 4.0 liter flat-6 is a work of absolute art. Combine the high revving 9000 rpm motor with an efficient drivetrain and you have a potent recipe for acceleration. ...Published on 01-08-2020 11:16 PM
This is great to see considering the GT500 is the hottest new performance car on the market. Everyone is talking about its powerful motor and how easy it is to tune but what about how incredibly capable it is on the track? ...Published on 01-08-2020 10:53 PM
Great work here from Protomotive on a 991.2 Porsche Carrera 9A2B6 3.0 belonging to PorscheBoost Porsche Performance Forums member @Rcr48s. This is the same car that recently set the 60-130 record on the 991.2 9A2B6 3.0 platform. ...Published on 01-08-2020 01:13 AM
This is not the stock internal Porsche 991 record as that belongs to ESMotor who ran 8.95 @ 157.61. That was done on a Syvecs standalone ECU and not on the factory ECU as this run was. The ByDesign XR kit certainly is impressing on the factory DME. ...Published on 01-07-2020 09:46 PM
Remember the Gintani 991.2 GT3 turbo kit announced not too long ago with the prototype built on a 991.2 GT3 RS? Well, we finally have some numbers to post and to put it mildly the numbers are impressive. ...Published on 01-07-2020 04:52 AM
As you all know the TiAL Sport hardware upgrade suite for Porsche 991.2 Carrera 3.0 models (T,S,GTS) came to market a couple years ago but only now is software tuning of the Siemens SDI21 9A2B6 ECU catching up the to the hardware capability. ...Published on 01-06-2020 10:35 PM
There is something about high end cars that seems to attract absolute filth and scammers. Such filth is Eric Brahms who operates under the username @PTS-BRG. BoostAddict was able uncover public documents showing Eric Brahms is a New York Supreme Court convicted scammer and con artist which he plead guilty to. ...Published on 01-06-2020 08:23 PM
This is one of those times that perfectly highlights how a car can be much faster on one track than another. Not to mention that the weather and the driver are massive variables. Motorsport Magazine in France tested the new Porsche 992 Carrera S on the Magny Course GP layout. ...Published on 12-27-2019 05:02 PM
However you feel about government if you are on this site you likely enjoy driving, modifying, and racing cars. Unfortunately, as you no doubt read certain areas and certain people want to make it illegal for you to work on your car or do anything fun at all with it. ...Published on 12-27-2019 03:44 PM
AMG aimed for the 911 with the C190 AMG GT and largely succeeded. No, it does not replicate the 911 driving experience but it does serve as a direct competitor in the segment. It offers its own unique Mercedes-AMG style and driving experience. Not to mention that beast of a twin turbo V8. ...
Easy 9's? JB4 tuned BMW F92 M8 S63TU2 V8...
Does the F92 M8 have a slight advantage...
