Still, on the very first try the PorscheBoost.com Project 991.2 set the fastest pass to date for any 991.2 3.0 and did it at full weight with a full tank of 91 octane pump fuel:

I only managed to get one clean run due to a wreck which delayed everyone and left only one lane open. Debris from this caused me to spin on a subsequent run and that was that. The track closed.
So, only one clean run and you will notice by the 60 foot that while a 1.8X is decent it certainly is not good for a 911 on Mickey Thompson drag radials. Getting heat into the tires proved problematic due to a poor burnout box but also operator error.
There are two levels to the Porsche traction control and I learned this a little too late. You have to press and hold the traction control button to completely disable it to do a burnout. You live, you learn.
Many would not post this but I will show the complete tuning process from start to finish. I fully intend to hit the track again with the goal of breaking into the 10's in the California summer heat which is a much stronger test for a turbo upgrade than running it in negative DA in the winter. I'm going to keep pushing it showing how well it performs even in the heat and how durable the BoostAddict Stage I turbo upgrade is.
For context, this is a GIAC tuned 991.2 C4 at the same strip although in cooler weather:

A difference of roughly six miles per hour so clearly there is a big power disparity. Furthermore, the results show a Carrera is easily capable of topping a GTS with a turbo upgrade so it reinforces a base car is the way to go if you intend to tune.
Keep in mind the car is still on low boost at ~22.5 psi and tuned for 91 octane. It will go back to Gintani for race gas tuning at 30+ psi after the BimmerBoost.com Project M3 comes back home. An intercooler upgrade is also desperately needed to deal with the heat.
Time for some tweaks and to hit the strip again. Expect a 10!
