A minimum of 285bhp, more if the engine is nicely loose and taken often near the redline.
Make sure your engine is in top health- plugs, leads, clean airfilter etc.
In case oyu have aftermarket airfilters like K&N: less than factory. Consistently dyno reports confirm standard Porsche airfilters are the best.
Finally, why more than standard? Porsche builods engines to exacting standards and quotes minimum performance figures. A car, well driven in the spirit porsche intended, (think looooooong autobahn drives at over 5500rpm when nice and warm), that is serviced by a porsche trained mechanic, will make the factory numbers as standard unless there is something wrong. Even 170 000 mile 993 types.

There was a post pinned to the top in the 993 section with some results from a load of dyno runs we did at 9M, but it seems to have gone. Try a search and, if you can find it, you will see the graphs on the runs. Most cars were over spec - lots of smiles on the day.[]
hi & thanks for the info it was just to get an idea when i get to road it to see what it might be.
cheers for that.
cheers for that.
