Entirely stock except possibly for exhaust (could be PSE or aftermarket, I can't tell).

Using a manual stopwatch, I measure 0-60 in 5.8 secs. Porsche says 5.7 secs for the stock 2004 3.2L S model. Close enough for manual timing from a video.

Same for max speed; video indicates 175mph whereas Porsche says 165mph. We all know that the speedometer reads just a tad fast so it seems close enough to the expected stock performance.
