Hey, why bother getting a GT3 when you can drop a chip, intake, exhaust and BANG...EUREKA the magic number comes true, 60HP power gain

I wonder why Porsche had to rize from 3.4L to 3.6L and other major engine mods to get a REAL 20hp gain, it would be much cheaper for them to talk with some of our members and make the mods they´ve done to get 20, 30 or 60hp gain, just choose one .

I had my 3.6 flashed and noticed no measurable difference after a month of driving with it and then had it removed. The return policy was fantastic. Save your money the 3.6 is tweaked to the MAX. Just my .02 cents.

Just chipping a 3.6 is a waste of time.We only get 35hp with cats,mufflers & Intake.

If you read my post, I am merely passing on information I received from the previous owner.

He is a member on this board (and rennlist) and I assure you he is a stand-up guy. There's no reason for him to lie. He's moved onto a GT3 and I would love to hear his comparison. I wish I had the dyno sheet to prove this cause I knew this would spark a reaction such as yours. I shouldn't have even opened my mouth! Even look at Sharky's post earlier in this thread about 40hp gains from a chip, exhaust and intake on 3.4s...

But is there a point to mock my post? I apologize if it's so unbelievable
