2005 Turbo S Cab

Cruising the web I found some conflicting information on the stats of this vehicle. If anyone knows from an actual review or own experience:

HP 444 or 489?
Torque 457 seemed to be consistent.
0-60 3.8, 3.9, 4.2 or 4.3? Manual
How many Turbo S Cabs were made? I saw a couple of different numbers here.

444hp is correct and I believe more Turbo Cabs than coupes were built.. I could be wrong here, someone else chime in if so. Interested in what the time stats are as well

I beleive 450 is the official sales stat for most K24 cars (later GT2s were rated @47x)

Although I have seen 444 a lot.

Verbatum from 03 order guide:
OPTION X50 Turbo Power Kit 450 HP
Includes modified turbo chargers, intercoolers, electronic control units, and transmission.

That answers another question. So the 2005 Turbo S essentially has all the X50 upgrades, ceramic brakes, and aero kit?

The Turbo S numbers that I came up during my research with PCNA and PCA with are

Coupe 100
Cab 150

HP 458
TQ 457

Remember these numbers are for North America. The biggest difference in the normal Turbo and the Turbo S is when it was manufactures. Some Turbo S cars were produced in 2004 and very few in 2005. a 2005 manufacture date means your car was built with left over parts from 2004. Mine was made in mid 2005 and always ran better than the X50 cars I ran her against.

0-60 on track and watch in 100 plus degree heat 3.9
I'm sure in the right temps it's more like 3.7
