Seems pointless to me. 20hp, better off going on a diet!

Ha ha...you know what I mean!

They are never going to make mega increases. Better off buying a C7 or lobbing a 'charger on.

Charger yes!!!c7 too much cash and too big for me, better of buying a 997 turbo and chip it to 620 that's what I would do, I might even get one for the mrs while she waits for the macan

Not a lot of decent 997s about, and gen 2 S with PDK is C7 money.

Not sure id put the wife in a turbo, she'd be shitting biscuits.

No I wouldn't worry about PDK I would get hold of a good manual, she's up for it, then I could get my power buzz with that, not too sure about going the whole hog with organic clutch etc etc
You only drive as fast as you make it, she will be ok :FIREdevil:
Going way off topic

That's not a massive gain for throwing away most of your warranty
