Let's say that your Boxster does 0-60 in 5.8, or 6 seconds or even 7 seconds.

According to a gps verifiable system, a stock Panamera TT does 10.14 in a 60 to 130 run.
Same car with an ecu tune does 60-130 in 8.28 seconds.

Even if you take into consideration the extra 10mph and the time required, do you think any Boxster will beat their 0-60 time going 60-120?

Oh, get the underdrive pulley for the best gain and it saves your power steering pump too.
Interesting. I'll time this tomorrow. I'm just going by feel.

What is an underdrive pulley? Any brand names? Common part or special order?
