The joys of going FI I guess.

I guess it must be heavily downtuned to fit into it's spot in the range.

That's so appealing IMO.

Maybe more so than a more overtly sporting/powerful car (either from Porsche or another manufacturer).

It's a car you could drive everyday, park without having to be too paranoid etc, but one that would have (what I guess would be) pretty incredible performance when you wanted it.

It would make an amazing Q-car

I don’t think you could ever successfully argue that a 992 is a q-car, but I know what you mean. :)

Amazing increase - if it was chippedUK you’d cry “bollox” but it’s Litchfield.

So basically a mapped C2 becomes a GT2

So let's place our bets on what a GT2 with a simple remap will make..........

800?

I was discussing this yesterday with my 991.2 Turbo S owning mate. A 992 CarreraT with remap makes the same power as his car. His can “only” be remapped to 620, or 670 with an exhaust change. But as he says, he definitely doesn’t need any more power on the street (although he is waiting for news on the 992 Turbo S.

Personally, I’m looking forward to 5 years time when I can afford a 992 Carrera...

They'll sell a few. Most people will be too shit scared of losing the Porsche warranty to do it. Most will be leased/PCP'd and people will be afraid to.

Judging by other forums, people with leases / pcp are most likely to get their new cars remapped!

No doubt it takes a bit of development work to do it properly like Litchfield do. Seems cheap to me!

Available to configure on the Porsche GB website 🤷‍♂️

Edit: CarreraT = Carrera Turbo not Targa, just in case that’s what you meant.

I imagine he’s referring to the Carrera T, a separate model like the S, 4S etc
