What mods did you do to the 3.6L in a standard Carrera?
just the PSE and sport chrono,the car is light I ordered it with no extra's my reg says it weighs 2910 most people on the forum say that can't be true ,Maybe it is?

great ET, the trap speed is more indicative of the car's true speed.

Something seems off...Porsche say's a Carrera weights 3075 to 3296lbs with the manual transmission depending on options. This is a dry weight no fluids. All the car mags claim the S version does the 1/4 mile around 12.8 to 13. Your lower powered standard Carrera did it in 12.8? Well that is the time you got so congrats on a great car and great driving!

maybe the car with out gas weighed 2910,I can't explain it other then the moon must have been aligned right that night.My second run was 13.0 even with a faster mph at the end.It's all in the first 60 feet it stuck.

My stock S did 12.8 in a 1/4 mile but I couldn't get it under that. I will try next time after all the mods I did to see the difference....very excited

I think the turbo does sub-12s in the quarter.....

post after you run with the mods lets see how much of a differnce it will make.
I tell you I think I can go faster I just need to lower the pressure in the rear tires, warm up the tires and when in 3rd get out to 4th around 5500 rpm's

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe a 996 Turbo Cab, and that's mediocre for even that car.

on a road course with the divers being equal the S should do much better ,the Suspension is much tighter.
On the 1/4 I have been hearing the S is doing 12.8.
