Yep, HP numbers on shiny brochures from Porsche should be read as "at least xxx HP".
HP varies quite a bit depending on elevation, air temp and atmospherics. Also ignore all the dyno numbers from aftermarket parts mfg companies who freely rig the results because they are also quite variable.
Chasing dyno numbers from others is like herding cats. An exercise in futility. The only ones that really count are on your car.
