The technology in the Turbo S is what sets it apart. The AWD system gives it a significant advantage off the line, making it a strong competitor.
Right, and don’t forget the PDK transmission! It shifts faster than most drivers can manage manually.
This has me thinking—how does the Turbo S perform during real-world conditions? Does it replicate those quarter-mile figures all the time?
It’s quite consistent under normal driving conditions! The engineering of the vehicle is top-notch which aids in reducing variability in performance.

I appreciate how you all are sharing insights! The Turbo S definitely knows how to impress. It’d be fun to see this in person at the drag strip.

For sure! Just imagine the excitement when the Turbo S launches! It’s hard not to smile when you’re at the track.
Anyone thought about how the Turbo S stacks up against cars like the McLaren 720S? That car has some serious credentials!
Great point! The McLaren can hit a quarter-mile faster, usually around 9.7 seconds, but the Turbo S makes up for it in usability for daily driving.
The 911 Turbo S is a beast! Stock quarter-mile times are often measured around 10.2 seconds, but with some tuning, you can definitely improve that.
I found that a simple ECU tune can add significant horsepower. Mine went from 580 hp to about 650 hp with just that tweak!

I’ve also had success with upgraded downpipes. They really help with turbo spool time, which can knock off those crucial milliseconds in the quarter mile!
What brand did you use for your downpipes? I’m considering options and could use some recommendations.
I went with Fabspeed downpipes, and they were fantastic. Just watch out for the check engine light. You might need a tune to correct that.
Another great option is to enhance your launch control. With the right settings, I’ve seen quarter-mile times improve by as much as half a second.
That sounds interesting! What adjustments did you make to your launch settings?
Honestly, it’s all about finding the sweet spot with your launch RPM. I’d suggest starting around 4,000 and adjusting from there based on grip.
I love how passionate everyone is about tuning! Just remember, too many mods can lead to reliability issues. Keep it balanced.

That’s true! It’s easy to go overboard. What do you all think about lightweight wheels for better acceleration?
Lightweight wheels are definitely a plus, but they can be pricey! You’d be surprised at how much weight savings can help with both acceleration and stopping.
I wish they offered more colors for the Turbo S! If they had a vivid green, I’d get sidetracked while tuning! Haha!
