We Test the Porsche 991.2 Turbo S on the Dyno with a Tune and Akrapovic Exhaust

[@aose19]

Dan always love blue Porsche

[@vivid_racing]

Thank you!

[@markpleasant9843]

Those are some great numbers. Y’all did a wonderful job tuning my TR Panamera.

[@vivid_racing]

Thank you!

[@markupsdotorg]

So based on the video the first dyno runs after the tune had more horsepower and torque than after you installed the exhaust I assume this was some sort of error in the video?

[@mattbr5246]

that exhaust sounds amazing!!! it kills all that popping.. (I'm not a fan of all that popping)

[@vivid_racing]

That's fair! Everyone has their own taste!

[@johnvenaleck8240]

Great video 👍 is that a custom tune or canned tune? Looks like the exhaust didn't add much power over the curve. Tune was impressive though 👌

[@vivid_racing]

We do a specific tune for each car as softwares are different. The term canned tune or stage tune is used so losely with different meanings. I can say that we have done SOOOO Many Porsche's over the years that we have a good receipe. The older 996, 997 Turbos really benefitted from the exhaust. The new exhausts are a bit better but have no sound. So most usually do it to hear it sound like an actual sports car.

[@abiazis1]

What is the cost of the whole set-up?

[@vivid_racing]

Andrew Biazis drop me a email and will send you pricing dan at vividracing dot com

[@protectandswerve]

Hey brother. Not sure if you've seen my result recently on RL with my tune upgrades, but my car with the new Stage. 2 high output GIAC tune and their race gas tune is pushing 650 whp. My 60-130 at full weight with my 270 lbs. in it is around 6.30 sec. on the Stg. 2 and 6.07 secs. best with 50 / 50 mix of race gas on race tune. Very impressive for only a tune / exhaust and NO other mods.

[@omarlondon]

is it really necessary to change the intercoolers for this kind of power?

[@vivid_racing]

It definitely helps!

[@alfonsotejeda6931]

Does the carrera s has in the same place the ECU? Thanks

[@vivid_racing]

Yes same location we have removal instructions on www.vrtuned.com

[@davidciardullo6837]

Couldn't you Street tune the car

[@davidciardullo6837]

Now that the exhaust is put on

[@vivid_racing]

You dont need to street tune these... The files are proven files. You just read it out, match the software, flash the good working file. Custom tuning would only be needed if you changed turbos and injectors.

[@Kaeineir]

Will this tune void your warranty?

[@vivid_racing]

Depends on the dealer. However this could not void a FULL warranty. If the dealer had a issue, might only be your powertrain.

[@Kaeineir]

What typically has been your customer experience with this? Just curious the feedback you've gotten. Thanks for the previous reply

[@vivid_racing]

@@Kaeineir I have owned MANY Porsche. Currently a 2016 GT3RS. Had a 2014 991 Turbo. The dealers are usually straight up if you are straight up. I have never seen a major failure from a basic Turbo tune on any 911, Panamera, Cayenne, Macan.

[@caxsfSpeedster]

Honestly a car that has torque decreasing most rpm range??

[@vivid_racing]

I don’t understand the question but this is how pretty much all Porsche Turbo dyno graphs look on a Mustang dyno

[@stephenlane2826]

It's hard to hear the true exhaust improvement until it's run under load on the street.

[@toneyclayton485]

I am not sure but... it seems to me that it lost power with the exhaust. First numbers (after tune) were around 541awhp/667awtq on the mustang dyno and then with the exhaust, torque went to under 600 and hp remained. Correct me if i am wrong because i hope like hell that i am...

[@vivid_racing]

Did not loose power. See here finish dyno www.vividracing.com/tuned-ecu-flash-tune-porsche-9912-turbo-38l-580hp-p-151880265.html

[@feder.4544]

@@vivid_racing You are showing final results with may be stock car with only the ECU remap.Toney says that at the youtube video the results shows differents values from the link you show.May be the map you use first is intend it to use with stock exhaust.Thats why when you put the Akrapovic the power goes down.

[@zzzzzsleeping]

@@feder.4544 Besides, upgrading the exhaust did not impress me too - the sounds remain the same.

[@markjayw666]

Exhaust added zippo lol. It was all the tune.

[@donpeltonen3452]

$6k+ for nothing more than a little bit of noise. At least they could have chromed the muffler bearings for that money.

[@stevefowler2112]

Yep...the Porsche exhaust is pretty hard to beat as for H.P./TQ...but I would expect the Ti exhaust would save you 35 lbs which on the ass end is nice. but not for $8K

[@carzclub5009]

Are you looking for the sports car of your dreams?

[@vivid_racing]

We already got it! :)

[@hockeymann88]

Informative comparisons. Nice vid.

[@vivid_racing]

Thank you very much!

[@sasaobradovic4845]

Times 60-130 or 100-200 km/h?

[@vivid_racing]

Sorry we don’t have the spot for that.

[@AbsolutMassager]

Cost of getting the tune done? In the process of getting a 991.2 turbo s and was thinking of Akrapovic exhaust but didn’t think if doing a tube as well to make the package complete....

[@Area991.2]

4 hp w the Akra, ughhh.. save my dough.

[@vivid_racing]

While we experienced a smaller increase from the exhaust only, this was due to the substantial Arizona heat and crummy fuel quality. Cooler temperatures will result in even more power increase and really lets the exhaust shine. It's also about freeing up restriction. The factory exhaust is quite restrictive compared to the Akrapovic

[@zzzzzsleeping]

So do I need to remove my ECU and send it to you ??

[@vivid_racing]

Not anymore can do it obd2 www.vividracing.com/index.php?keywords=Vrtuned+Porsche+991.2+turbo

[@hby7768]

how does this compare to the Cobb stage 3?

[@vivid_racing]

Better of course!

[@fzr1000981]

465 rwhp is not that impressive for 19 psi, my ZL1 puts down 570 rwhp at 10 psi.

[@vivid_racing]

You don’t understand dynos then....

[@fzr1000981]

I realize it's a Mustang dyno with high ambient temps, but heat soak is another liability for these high boost smaller displacement engines. They also lose compression faster

[@ninous26]

3.8 liter 6 cylinder vs 6.2 8 cylinder... I wonder why the engine with 2 more cylinders and more than 150% the displacement puts down more HP on less boost. What a genius you are!

[@fzr1000981]

That's not the point idiot - the point is a lower stress engine will hold compression longer and generally be more reliable

[@harrybowman1186]

#1 That really is a dumb comment 🤦🏻‍♂️ #2 You own an LT4 and you think the 991 needs to worry about heat soak?? And then I think you sort of said your camaro is more reliable than a 911 turbo 🤡🤣

[@terryellis333]

Cute.

[@vivid_racing]

terry ellis thank you

[@terryellis333]

Lol

[@sasaobradovic4845]

BHP After all ?
