yeah I saw this earlier today but wanted to wait until you posted it. Certainly solid numbers and they attained those on lower boost than what Mike was running on his car. Evidently the new control unit and mapping has been yet another improvement. You ARE coming to Croctoberfest with the car aren't you?
Croctoberfest
Croctoberfest is the annual gathering of Cayman owners and enthusiasts to partake in several fun events over the course of a few days. Croctoberfest 2006 was held in Kansas City, Croctoberfest 2007 was held in Las Vegas, and Croctoberfest 2008 will be held in Atlanta, GA on October 2nd - 5th.

They had just done a 997 turbo and it dynoed at 415...I feel pretty good even without the comparison.
As for Crocfest, I'm not sure yet. TPC should be able to get the cars out faster now so there should be quite a few Cayman Turbos there by then.
There are usually 3 to 5 Caymans at the monthly GTG, so stay tuned for vids.

Unless it's just concidental, I think that was my friend's Carmona Red Cayman S which pulled 415 WHP on TPC's dyno after its TPC turbo install. It's also gotten a LWFW, GT3 LCA, bars, aero kit, blah, blah, blah. It already had a Quaife TBD and PSS9s. It arrived at TPC with Milltek catbacks and Softronics flash, but they're both gone. The Milltek headers have remained. Current plans are that we'll be driving it to the Petit Le Mans/Croctoberfest.
As an aside, it's recommended that the car be driven with PSM on to avoid wheelspin when it's punched ... in 3rd.
LSD - Limited Slip Differential
A limited slip differential (LSD) is a modified or derived type of differential gear arrangement that allows for some difference in rotational velocity of the output shafts, but does not allow the difference in speed to increase beyond a preset amount. In an automobile, such limited slip differentials are sometimes used in place of a standard differential, where they convey certain dynamic advantages, at the expense of greater complexity.
The main advantage of a limited slip differential is found by considering the case of a standard (or "open") differential where one wheel has no contact with the ground at all. In such a case, the contacting wheel will remain stationary, and the non-contacting wheel will rotate freely– the torque transmitted will be equal at both wheels, but will not exceed the threshold of torque needed to move the vehicle, thus the vehicle will remain stationary. In everyday use on typical roads, such a situation is very unlikely, and so a normal differential suffices. For more demanding use however, such as driving off-road, or for high performance vehicles, such a state of affairs is undesirable, and the LSD can be employed to deal with it. By limiting the velocity difference between a pair of driven wheels, useful torque can be transmitted as long as there is some friction available on at least one of the wheels.

PSM - Porsche Stability Management
While it can’t overcome the laws of physics, the revolutionary Porsche Stability Management (PSM) system does lend an added degree of balance and control to the Cayman’s mid-engine driving dynamics, inspiring surefooted confidence in corners and extreme situations.
A standard feature on the Cayman and Cayman S, PSM continuously monitors steering input, road speed, yaw velocity and lateral acceleration to calculate the actual direction of travel. If the car begins to steer off line, PSM instantly intervenes with precision brake inputs on individual wheels to help bring the car back onto the driver’s intended path.
If braking alone isn’t enough to correct the vehicle’s cornering line, PSM then calls on the Cayman’s engine management system, adjusting engine output as needed to help stabilize handling. PSM can also compensate in an instant for mid-corner changes in load resulting from deceleration or braking. When Sport mode is selected with the optional Sport Chrono Package, PSM’s threshold for intervention is raised, allowing for greater driver involvement. If you prefer driving without automatic PSM assistance, the system can be set to standby at any time. In this case, it will only intervene under heavy braking, where both front wheels exceed the ABS threshold.
For all of its technical ability, PSM goes virtually unnoticed in everyday driving situations, preserving the Cayman’s natural agility.
