The Porsche Panamera is a mid to full-sized luxury car (E-segment or F-segment for LWB in Europe) manufactured and marketed by Porsche. The Panamera name, as with the Carrera name, is derived from the Carrera Panamericana race.
DO you mean no SS for USA yet? SS N-rated has been used in several test already:
Thanks! It is obvious that there is no mechanical difference in the PTTS and powerkit turbo enginewise, its a marketing trick. There would be no point in different softwares etc.I bet the weight difference comes from PCC brakes.
If you would like to make it look even better for the powerkit, you would have chosen the test from April 2011 (above). The car weighs 2022kg, but 0-200 1.8s, 60-100 3.2s, 80-120 6.7s etc.
The powerkit has performed better in every test. I wonder if it is due to the LSD that is replaced by the PTV in the PTTS.
ONE CORRECTION to your table:
About the max turbo boost. It is max 0.8 without sport chrono or overdrive. Ive seen 1.0bar max in my powerkit and with the older version of the PCM, I dont see max bost, but in this video you see its 1.2 MAX and it flashes at 1.1bar for a brief moment. When you are throttleing it, you cant watch the dial at the same time, the VTG turbo pressure varies a LOT!

I chose the 2nd testcar for this comparison because it was quicker at the Sachenring than the 1st one.If you would like to make it look even better for the powerkit, you would have chosen the test from April 2011 (above). The car weighs 2022kg, but 0-200 1.8s, 60-100 3.2s, 80-120 6.7s etc.
I thought PTV comes with the air-suspension (which was standard in the Powerkit - according to AutoBild Sportscars).
According to Sport Auto the max boost of the Panny Turbo S is 0,95 bar, I have to correct it.

Try pasting the the video URL to www.keepvid.com and then download it to your computer. Good luck.
PTV comes with pdcc in post 2011 models, but to correct myself they also gave lsd. This is standard in Turbo S. In pre models lsd came with pdcc also., but no ptv. Air suspension is standard ion all turbos.
