Differences between 2016 and 2017 Turbo S
Hi All,
I've been looking at getting a 2017 Turbo S convertible.
I've been having some trouble identifying the true differences
between the model years, other than a modest increase in horsepower.
I'd appreciate any insights that you could give me.
Thanks,
David

Steering wheel, PCM, different blind spot detectors on interior
Exterior: lighter forged wheels, revised ceramic brakes, larger turbos on the S, improved fuel delivery (Increased PSI). Many other revisions
2017 will be beast once the mods start flowing. 10.2 range with exhaust and stock tune. Bet it will be close to a 9 second car with tune and exhaust.

Of course, having said that, an exhaust is a possibility. And of course, I did have my previous 2004 Turbo modified by Perfect Power in Buffalo Grove, Illinois. I wonder if they're still good?

I just got my secondary water cooling pump replaced on warranty and my car is modded out the ***. Depends on the dealership, the one here in Austin is selling GIAC tunes now. When I first bought my car almost three years ago at Park Place in Dallas, the Austin dealership was not mod friendly. Even so, they did the AWD update without concern for the mods. Most tunes stay within the design limits and so probably won't cause any concern about the warranty.
