Yes, but the 997 is automatic (tip tronic). The manual 997 is a bit faster i think.

0-60 the auto 997 turbo is faster than the manual 997, u can brake and gas it to build up boost and then take off in manner that one might describe as rabied wolf going for the kill... dont know about after 60, but i think the auto 997 accelerates faster to the quarter mile also...

Yes its stock. It was a cold day, I think that increased the power on the S65 a bit. Really cold air is perfect for the turbos!
