My Porsche is at 0405 0500, 955.

However, I did some calculations and I'm pretty sure upgrading tires is actually more efficient than upgrading exhaust.

That is why I gave the tune of 0505 5502, which is fully maxed out top speed, nitro, tires, and suspension, along with a little bit of exhaust thrown on to add more ranks.

According to my calculations, which are based on info found in the wiki (also, done in km/h), and which are usually very accurate, here's what I got:

1. 0505 5502 = 349.35 km/h @1042

2. 0505 0504 = 346.8 km/h @1028

As you can see, the wiki description of the speed is wrong, though the rank may or may not be correct. I think it is wrong, though, because I've tested my rank calculations with other cars and they aren't usually off by any more than 0.5 ranks.

By the way, here's what I found was the difference between tires and exhaust:

1. Tires --> +43.8 ranks, +7.25 km/h

2. Exhaust --> +65.7 ranks, +10.4 km/h

If you divide 43.8 by 7.25 then multiply it by 10.4, you get 62.8. That means tires would add 10.4 km/h in 62.8 ranks instead of 65.7 ranks, which, granted, is not much better, but it's still something.

On the other hand, it's more beneficial to have more raw top speed than nitro anyway, at least in the Porsche 959's case, so there's only good being done by upgrading the tires instead of exhaust.
