A difference in 1.3mph in trap speeds is what I would call "normal variation". Even on the same day, with the same car. I don't know their testing procedure here, but remember to that simply different levels of heat soak can produce this variation in N/A and turbo cars.
Bottom line is it's a 118-119mph trap speed car. That needs to be put into perspective:
The 2007 911 turbo, considered to be brutally fast with 480hp, trapped 118-119mph consistently.
In other words, I expect the same in gear thrust (not launch) as a 997.1 911 turbo. Which is bonkers.
