I don't know. This might result in the same thing as a "lift throttle" mid corner, inducing a spin. The basic rule with a 930 or 951 is: When the car comes on boost, make sure your steering wheel is pointed straight... even if you are mid-corner make sure the wheel is pointed straight.

If it was my car being built, I would favor a wider, fatter powerband and give up some top end HP in favor of drivability. A 997TT is really pretty good here and any turbo motor could be tuned for drivability. Everything is a tradeoff.
