Do you get a "G" and a "T" thrown for that 12k?

I don’t have an issue with tuning cars and have done many times before
They actually build in plenty of slack to deal with different working conditions and fuel types across the world so there are plenty of margins to exploit. We are lucky we have readily available high grade fuel for example, we don’t live in hot and sandy climates either
My issue is with voiding the warranty and the fight with that
My bmw dealer easily uncovered the map on my old twin turbo x5 and told me that the warranty was voided albeit they would still cover obviously non related items eg suspension etc
Porsche generally take a much firmer stance - reports of not even being able to extend the warranty for non N rated tyres is a ridiculous example to start with
Our S is just about quick enough and I don’t need anything faster - despite having much faster stuff.
I averaged 29mph home last night from work in 50/60 mph roads because everyone else was driving so fricking slow!!

I don’t mind other people tuning their cars, I just don’t want to do mine. Nor I want to buy a 2/3rd hand vehicle that has been tuned to increase power/torque. This is why I will buy new 911.
Let’s face it, the more highly strung-up the vehicle, the lower it’s longevity and reliability. I respect that many Porsche owners don’t need to worry about cost of repairs… I do.
I don’t mind spending more on a better car. I do get emotional when it breaks and I know I have directly contributed to it.
