It is my understanding that anytime you mash the gas pedal to the floor at wide open throttle, the calculated load should be near 100%, at all rpms. Is this different on a Porsche? I thought this is a standardized thing?

I am getting 100% at higher rpms but only 50-60% if for example...third gear, 2000rpm, WOT.

Is there something wrong with my car? I just replaced the MAF sensor which seems to have fixed CEL troubles but now I am noticing this “problem”.

Seems to drive good now. I just got the car so I have nothing to compare it to know if I am down on power.
