I dunno. I can believe it's close

The S likely also had the rear wheel steering of the GT3. Less aero so less drag. The twin turbo has a broader torque curve and probably could put power down at lower RPMs.

Top speed is lesser in the S, but usable acceleration is likely on par, if not slightly exceeding the .1 GT3.

I've stated before that a properly tuned 991.2 Carrera S or GTS will easily be as fast as a 991.1 GT3 or even GT3RS.
