    Is there any risks to that ECU tune for reliability? Seems like a major power boost. Where does it come from?

    • @AutoAmateur
      @AutoAmateur  หลายเดือนก่อน

      The power is already in the engine. Porsche just tune the base specifically to deliver less power than the S and the GTS. The base, S and GTS all have the same 3.0TT engines. The GTS just having bigger turbo chargers. The tune won’t bother the engine at all. It can easily handle the power. It’s the bolt-on parts like hoses that might need replacing faster than they might have before the tune.

    What a coincidence, I went to test drive a 991.2 Carerra base PDK too, also Graphite Blue Metallic. Wanted to upgrade from my 987.1 S manual. It’s a big jump in performance and price. Salesman took me through backroads @ 140kms. He’s very experienced race driver. I was sold on 991.2 base and he said there’s not much difference in S, GTS. So save your money and learn how to race your car. Pedal to the metal, fast as you can. If I do end up getting it, the yellow calibres look great on Graphite Blue Metallic.

    My first Porsche was a 2014 981 Boxster. I then moved up to a 991.2 but wasn't fond of the turbo's feel and sound, so I switched back to the 991.1, which has a similar feel to the 981 but just better. I do miss the firmer chassis of the 991.2, though. After driving the 992 a few times and appreciating its even better chassis, I still prefer the sound and throttle response of the 991.1.

    chrono pack isnt only a clock. you must know it already, what benefit you get with adding the clock only?

      I just love how it looks on the dash. Even when I had the original part from the factory in other 911s I’ve owned I don’t think I ever used it. I just love how it looks. Haha.

    James, FYI I have heard that the guys who have done the H&R springs end up with a harsh ride….and have utilized other options. FYI we meet at one of the recent Sportscar Together Festival events at Indy if I am not mistaken. Love the new car. These little Turbocars are terrific and the Tune’s make them come alive. Cannot wait to see what happens next.

    Beautiful car, I've got a close sibling, 2017 graphite blue base. I love the Softronic tune that I did earlier this year. Now I really need to get up to Tail of the Dragon if you guys do another road trip.

    Between this and the Cayenne, I’m now subscribed! When is the next Cayenne update? I’m torn between getting a newer 9Y0 and one like yours. Getting one like yours means more budget for a fun car.

    • @AutoAmateur
      @AutoAmateur  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If it helps, the seats in the newer Cayennes aren’t nearly as comfortable as the ones in my model. Spend your extra money on the fun car.

    Great looking car imo the best looking generation ever, I am puzzled between 991.1 vs 991.2 lookswise i prefer newer but those 3.8l engines in carrera s previous gen are to die for

    How did you get the Softronic tune for only $1,200.00? Did that price include the handheld loader device?
    I already have the Soul high flow cats and a Fabtech X-pipe muffler-delete. An ECU tune is my last performance mod.

  • @vancityflyguy
    @vancityflyguy ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Glad to see a new video and the car looks amazing. Looking forward to the mods. Please make sure you film the very first reaction of you driving with the tune. Those are the best, but guys usually ruin them by only showing the video when they’ve been driving it for a bit, and it’s just not the same. Congrats!!!

    • @AutoAmateur

    Congrats! I have a 991.2 C4S that's graphite blue like yours but with full Cognac leather interior package.
    Looking forward to the performance mods!
    Unfortunately...I've still got a year and half left on my warranty and service (I bought the extended warranty when it expired and prepaid for the services) but I'm keen on the ECU tune, filters, cat and headers...may be intercoolers too. That's about what I'm thinking about doing as soon as the warranty expires.
    *Here in my country any changes to the factory setting voids the warranty to that part, even adding coding for Android Auto voids the warranty on the PCM system.
    Cheers!

    Congrats James!
    Awesome looking car!
    I still need to install my JoyAuto, so I'll have to watch that video for a forth time now.
    When I first saw your 991.2 I was thinking to myself...now there's a Sharkey P car for ya!
    The color looks more like a shark's color, and with your mods, it'll be as dangerous as a Shark Too!
    Congrats!

    Nice Pick Up... CONGRATS!!!
    I've been considering jumping into a .2 4GTS myself, currently in a .1 4S. My concern is the known "water pump" issue in the .2's as well as some turbo failure issues I've been "hearing" about. Did you have any concerns with jumping into a .2? Also, giving up the 3.8L NA Engine Sound will be a Hard Loss. If you do end up lowering consider changing the rears to 21's, you'll retain some of the symmetry. Anyway, Enjoy your New Mistress!!!

    • @AutoAmateur
      @AutoAmateur  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Cheers!! I’m not worried about these .2 engines. They’re largely bullet proof and the reliability statistics are very encouraging if you dig around. I do miss the NA exhaust sound to be fair. The PSE on this .2 sounds great but it’s not the same thrill.
