    Has anyone done power upgrade/chip tuning on Taycan or at least removed the limiter? This car has so many potential with it's 2 speed gearbox

      Yes look at HPG tuning in Germany.. 4S to 620 hp and 800Nm. GTS, turbo & turbo S goes to 800 and audi RS even tot 891 hp and 1000 Nm of torque

    Nice RX8! Got one myself!
    Ok, about the vid: thx for doing this, great show! 👍🏻
    Btw, you can select views in the left dail of the instrument cluster.
    That way you can see how much fwd/rwd split there is.
    In Range mode, the gearbox is disconnected from the drivetrain and the car only runs on the (more efficient) front motor.
    Grtz Dee.

      That's hilarious! I've had the RX8 for a decade now. Was our DD for a long time.
      I'm aware of the left cluster views, I usually keep it on the road setting.
      btw in Range Mode it still ran both motors, and torque split was different though.

      Yeah, you mentioned that in the vid.
      How was the left dail looking on the road and on the dyno?
      Maybe there's a difference which the car can detect and is acting differently on the dyno.

    Did they do a test using launch control? I know it's only for a few seconds but would probably be interesting. Thanks for the video.

      Glad you enjoyed it! No, no launch control. I'm not sure that's a swell idea either.
      I suspect that, based on the torque output, you get some overboost when you first hit the throttle while rolling. Just a hunch, the torque was pretty massive for a bit.

      Also since it has a super low CD, that more or less eliminates wind noise.

    I also posted this comment on Paradigm's short video of this test. Thanks for posting this. I saw a more recent Taycan dyno test (Turbo S model) with the dialog in German, and from what I could tell from auto-translation, they needed Porsche factory support to override the Taycan's computers so it didn't limit power due to thinking the car had traction control challenges while on the dyno: ua-cam.com/video/4sbMRl4tjxg/v-deo.html. Do you think the 4S may have had reduced performance during your dyno run due to not having this factory support for the test? Perhaps disabling all driver assistance systems with a 10 second press of the disable button (4 seconds is partial disable) per the Taycan owner's manual achieves the same outcome?

    • @WestCoastSupercarsandClassics
      @WestCoastSupercarsandClassics  2 роки тому

      I'm not sure about that. It was really just an opportunity to look at the performance. I think the hp numbers were pretty accurate. The torque was very high at peak.
      Thanks!

    I’d be careful with that zip tie...it could be a simple way for them to tell if anyone has tampered with anything and void your warranty...
