Not a problem Gary NJ. I have a little race history against the Porsche body with the first rendition of the OFNA McLaren body. The McLaren race circles around the Porsche back then (when I use to race in Mississippi when they hosted the Bass Pro Series). I noticed the newer McLaren has flared skirts in the rear that the old-school ones I have lack. Maybe they did that to make the rear more stable for big track racing. Time will tell.

Took the real GT car out for some laps yesterday at Harris Hill. Despite the 110 degree weather, I got about 10 laps in. Also met Brianne Corn. If you don't follow Pikes Peak, she is only the second women to win 4wd Time Attack in the 95 year history of PP, and she did it this past June.

I can try to help with that.
I have one of the Porsche bodies and I really liked it. I now run the Protoform PF8 mostly because its cheap.
I can compare the Porsche to the PF8 and the Ferrari F430 as those are the only ones I've ever run on my car. In my experience the PF8 has the most downforce and stability, then the Porsche, then the Ferrari is the loosest. To me downforce and stability are slower. So to answer your question the best I can is that the Porsche body is faster/looser for me than the PF8 but more stable and controlable than the Ferrari. Somewhere in the middle.
I would actually like to get another one but mines already silver so I would want a clear one to paint Red or Yellow or something.
If you want to sell or trade yours for something Gary NJ I would be interested.
I have a NIP PF8 or various other GT stuff.
