Carl thanks, I've already been surprised how differently it spools up at low revs in comparison to the GT2 and that was just running in regular mode. Michelin Sports fitted currently.

I have had my Turbo S for 3 months and its an epic daily driver, words cant explain how fast these cars are in every gear at any rev in any weather.

Not as involving as a GT3 but as a daily driver its untouchable.

Untouchable for the money but the 991 turbo S has moved the game on a long way. Hard to believe considering how good the 997 is but still true.

I ended up buying a 991S...

Borrowed my bro's 997TTS for a few days & decided I'd have no license or be dead if I drove one of these every day!!

I would just remap a non S to 565bhp, job done
and invalidate any OPC warranty that one may have on said car.

The standard Turbo s is much more than just a power hike so you cant really compare a tuned turbo to a non tuned turbo s.

exclusivity is also a big thing with the turbo s as you will probably see 1 turbo s to every 20 turbos.

In the Gen2 series there are more Turbo S than Turbo.

Coupe numbers = 335 (Turbo) vs 351 (Turbo S).

In performance terms, it is just the remap seperating my car and an S.
