But you have a different engine and transmission. The 9A1 engine with PDK does not upgrade like your motor.

Your correct. He did a friends PDK and the car is a beast. Check them out they tune much more than Porsche. Bentley Beverly Hills has a signature car they tune.

Interesting. I have heard that the 9A1 + PDK have very low limits of modification.

I currently have a 2012 turbo s with full Fabspeed exhaust, intake, and Evolution Motorsports tune all installed by fabspeed. Before I did these upgrades I unfortunately did not do enough research and feel as though the car is more capable with these mods. My best run in the 1/4 has been 10.8 at 129mph thus far in very good conditions. Are there any other tunes for my setup that are better than the one I am currently running? Thank you.

Right, won't most strips throw you out if you are running in the 10's without a roll bar?
Tuning a car that is turning numbers like a Turbo S is like throwing money out the window. As the pros just said, more HP isn't going to get you a better 1/4 mile time. And a 10 sec quarter mile is badass. If you want to throw money away, I'll send you my address...

Very true, however adding horsepower will improve your trap and rolling speeds, and that is my goal.

I brought the car to Cecil County Dragway once, and after my first pass (10.8), they gave me a warning

I have no real reason to run it again unless I change my mods. The PDK is very consistent, and I most likely won't get a better time. When I ran the car before at Cecil County I must have gotten lucky because I had 3 passes that were over the limit for non-caged cars and they only gave me a warning.
