Porsche says that Tiptronic works best when combined with the optional Sport Chrono Package because it shifts gears quicker and holds gears longer against the redline limiter. It also reduces the intervention of the Porsche Stability Management system to allow a little more wheel slippage, like when you’re accelerating out of a turn and the back end comes out a little bit and then snaps back when you stomp on the gas – way, way cool. The package also includes a stop watch in a binnacle on top of the dash that looks nifty, but we can’t imagine using it.
