By replacing the factory muffler and 2nd cats you will lose around 55lb. The PSS9 kit is also lighter than the standard shocks and springs. If you calculate the HP vs. weight, 100lb lighter in the rear means 1 more HP for you to work with. The air is cooler in Tampa, which where I live. I have not done anything else to the car accept what I posted. I only rev the car up to 2500rpm when launched for 0-60 measurement. I have clibrated the G-Tech already. Most of the people that use G-Tech are posting a .1 second accuracy for the 1/4 mile, so I assume it is pretty accurate. Forget the sound, the power that I gained from the mode is very noticable, specially in the 2nd gear.

Sounds like you have a nice ride! I usually quote my numbers as published by Porsche forgetting that they usually are very conservative at best.

The Gtech also measures hp and torque. What are you getting on the Gtech? Also, did you get the one that comes with the software? If so, can you post the hp and torque graph? I'm curious to see how accurate the device is and maybe ordering one myself.
