    Has anyone driven 992 Manual?

    Yep! Just because the engine can manage low rpm doesn't make it a good thing. Again, I'm glad I have the PDK as it won't really let you lug the engine too much before kicking down gears in normal mode. sport mode and sport plus, it's plenty of rpm to get up and go quickly. My upshift light...

    Has anyone driven 992 Manual?

    I do agree the 3.0L can cruise at surprisingly low rpm and hold rpm at low throttle inputs. But, I dislike the shift algorithm in my 992 GTS PDK in normal mode as it does cruise around town at 1,200rpm, etc. But, when I give it throttle it kicks down a few gears and gets into the powerband...

    Has anyone driven 992 Manual?

    Dude, you need more rpm. You need to be shifting the GTS between 2-3k for just lightly cruising around. Lugging the engine can be very bad for it. The LT4 is hard to lug as it has torque from 1k rpm, but don’t be afraid to rev that one too. Shift around 2-2.5k for just cruising around.

    Has anyone driven 992 Manual?

    Not a fan of cable shifter P-cars. Did that with my 981 GT4 and went PDK on 991.2 GT3 and now my current 992 GTS Coupe. I do agree with GT325 that I drove a buddy's 718 Spyder 6 speed and that was nice. OP, in short, no, the regular P-car shifters aren't quite as nice as the 6060 in the...

    New ECUs finally unlocked??

    I loved that my LS9 basically just needed a flexfuel sensor and injectors. The fuel pump was already good enough for the E85 flow.

    New ECUs finally unlocked??

    Very good news, but obviously have to be willing to forgo any powertrain warranty with a tuned ECU. Looking forward to the 1k+ rwhp 5BW's running around soon! Going to need A LOT of tire for traction. My back-end wiggles around more than I like with stock hp.

  8. Q

    Anyone get their Blackwing badge yet? And are you putting it on?

    Did you ever get an email or other written confirmation of your free badge request? What a crap show/ goat rodeo that whole badge mailing was. I finally got mine a few months ago after inquiring multiple times via phone, email, and carrier pigeon.

    AFM sucks and is a failure point.

    CT5-V Disabling V4 mode

    Smart man! Literally and figuratively as you appear to be a CPA. Me too. Good combo being a CPA with a 5BW six-speed. :D

    For the sake of resale value I hope this is a mistake

    I have a '22 Subaru BRZ Limited six-speed manual I got from Sewell as well. They are AWESOMELY fun cars. I track it and slide it around town. It's a blast of a car.

    For the sake of resale value I hope this is a mistake

    In most scenarios, a manual 5BW will hold better long-term value than any CT4BW, especially the automatics. That's basically a fact. So, if you can stretch to a manual 5BW, total cost of ownership should not be any worse than any 4BW. A lower option 4BW manual will also hold pretty good...

    For the sake of resale value I hope this is a mistake

    Oh, I'm not worried about the rods on the automatic LF4 from a durability standpoint, but it just feels a bit cheaper to not use the the Ti rods on all of the LF4 engines.

    I'll buy it from you for sticker.

    For the sake of resale value I hope this is a mistake

    That seems significant to me. Lighter/stronger rods.

    Lucky dog! Sounds like a total blast!
  18. Q

    For the sake of resale value I hope this is a mistake

    Doesn't the LF4 automatic have different engine internals than the LF4 manual?
