Originally purchased from Dundon Motorsport for $5125 for use with my (now sold) 991.2 GTS. Used on less than 20 wheels total. Includes tool, Protective Delrin Arm (No Scratching Wheels), case, owners manual, battery, and battery charger.
From Obsessed Garage: One-Hand Operation. Those of you who have installed center locks know how annoying they can be. This tool makes that process a dream. Just put it on the wheel, pull the trigger, and it does the job for you.
What’s great about this tool is that you don’t run the risk of over-torquing the nut on your wheels with the ease of removing a 443 ft pound center lock! Because the torque gun is programmed (for Porsche), it tightens to 600-newton meters (443 ft pounds), backs it off 60°, and then tightens it back to 600-newton meters – making the process of putting wheels on and taking them off super-efficient. If you’re using this for a different make of vehicle or purpose, you’d have to program it with the proper specs.
Now, some of you may be thinking, why can’t I just use my big Milwaukee impact with nut-busting torque to remove my wheels? The issue with using an impact tool is that it won’t be precise & can damage your center locks/wheels, which is problematic. Controlled torque is the name of the game here (Think of the HYTORC tool as a high-end digital/motorized torque multiplier), eliminating any chance of not hitting the specified torque that Porsche specifies. My experience with this gun has been fantastic.
If you have a car or multiple with center locks, I know this solution will be a worthwhile investment.
