The new 911 Turbo is a prime
example of the ongoing evolution
of Porsche engineering. For
another step up in all-round
performance, there’s the optional
Sport Chrono Package Turbo.
This integrated system provides
simultaneous enhancement
for engine, chassis and optional
Tiptronic S transmission.
Key features include a digital and
analogue timer located centrally
on the dashboard, a ‘Sport’ select
button on the centre console,
a performance display in the
standard Porsche Communication
Management (PCM), a personal
memory function in PCM, and
a special ‘overboost’ function
unique to the new 911 Turbo.When ‘Sport’ mode is selected,
the engine management system
applies a new set of variables
creating a much more aggressive
response. A modified throttle
map relates the pedal position in
the footwell to a wider angle
of opening on the throttle. As a
result, the engine has a much
more positive reaction to every
pedal input. In the higher gears,
a hard rev-limiter helps protect
the engine under power.
Under full acceleration, the
‘overboost’ function provides a
temporary increase in available
boost pressure of approximately
0.2 bar. The overboost is applied
across the medium rev range,
raising the standard 620 Nm of
torque to as much as 680 Nm.
The modified throttle is matched
by PASM, which also switches
to ‘Sport’ mode. The dampers
become firmer, enabling fasterturn-in as well as better contact
with the road.
On vehicles with Tiptronic S,
the basic gearshift pattern is
automatically switched to high-
performance mode. The gearshift
action is virtually instantaneous,
while the shift points are timed for
maximum acceleration. Lift off
the throttle – even at high revs –
and the system automatically
shifts down to apply engine
braking. There are no unwanted
upshifts in manual mode when
approaching the engine rev limit.
Since the driver has control over
every upshift, the handling of
the car is smooth and assured,
particularly when braking for a
corner.
To minimise assistance from
PSM, the trigger threshold for
this system is raised. The result
is a more natural and involving
response to both lateral andlongitudinal forces. Mid-corner
agility is considerably enhanced,
with greater scope for oversteer
on turn-in and exit. This added
freedom is particularly apparent
in lower-speed sequences and
bends. For even greater driving
pleasure, the all-wheel drive
system applies a greater
proportion of drive torque to the
rear.
