2009 PORSCHE 911 power steering

Sport Chrono Package Turbo
with dynamic engine mount
system.
The Sport Chrono Package Turbo
with dynamic engine mount
system is standard on 911 Turbo S
models and available as an
option for 911 Turbo models.

This integrated system provides
simultaneous enhancement for
engine, chassis and transmission.
Key features include a digital
and analogue stopwatch on the
dashboard, a performance dis -
play, a personal memor y function
in the Porsche Communication
Management (PCM), the SPORT
but ton and – in combination with
PDK – the SPORT PLUS but ton,
and an additional display on the
steering wheel which informs the
driver if the SPORT but tons and Launch Control have been acti
-
vated. The 911 Turbo models
additionally of fer the ‘overboost ’
function. This is how it works:
When ‘Sport ’ mode is selected,
the engine management system
creates a much more aggressive
response to pedal inputs. To do
this, it implements an alternative
throt tle map which relates the
pedal position in the foot well to
a wider angle of opening in the
throt tle body. In higher gears, it
uses a hard rev- limiter to protect
the engine under power.
In the 911 Turbo models, under
full acceleration, the maximum
boost pressure in the lower and
medium speed ranges is now
temporarily increased by approx -
imately 0.2 bar. As a result,
engine torque is boosted by 50 Nm to a maximum of 700 Nm for a
limited period. (The 911 Turbo S
models are configured to operate
with a higher boost pressure level,

which means that their maximum
torque is always 700 Nm.)
In addition to the engine, ‘Sport ’
mode is enabled in the standard
Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM) suspension.
The dampers become firmer,
enabling faster turn - in as well as
bet ter contact with the road.
In automatic mode of PDK,
the basic gearshif t pat tern is
switched to high-performance
mode. The gear change action is
virtually instantaneous, while the
shift points are timed for maxi -
mum acceleration. Lif t of f the
throt tle – even at high revs – and
the system automatically shif ts
down to apply engine braking. In
manual shif t mode, gear chang -
ing is faster and more dynamic.
Porsche Stabilit y Management
(PSM) is also adapted, with the
intervention threshold raised. As
a result, the car has a more natu -
ral response to lateral and longi -
tudinal forces. Cornering agilit y
is greatly enhanced, when both braking to turn in and applying
power on exit – particularly

in low-speed bends. For even
greater driving pleasure.
For maximum manoeuvrabilit y,
PSM can be partially disabled
while the car is still in ‘Sport ’
mode. PSM simply monitors the
forces acting on the car and
will only intervene in the most
critical scenarios, e.g. when ABS
assistance is required on both
front wheels.
In conjunction with PDK (standard
on 911 Turbo S models), the
Sport Chrono Package Turbo with
dynamic engine mount system
has t wo additional functions that can be activated via the SPORT
PLUS but ton, for a sport y drive
that borders on a motorsport
experience.
The first function is ‘Launch
Control’, which, for example
when per forming laps, helps you
achieve optimum acceleration
from a standing start, a racing
start in other words.
The function works like this:
press the SPORT PLUS but ton
when the transmission is in ‘D’
or ‘M’. Then, with your lef t foot,
press the brake pedal and accel -
erate fully with the right foot.
The car recognises ‘Launch’ mode
from the accelerator kickdown action and adjusts the engine
speed to the optimum level,
which is around 5,000 rpm. At
the same time, boost pressure
is increased to approximately

0.5 bar, engine torque is
increased and the clutch is
applied lightly. ‘Launch Control’
now appears in the steering
wheel display. Now release the
brake as quickly as you can –
and feel the acceleration power
unleashed to the road.

Headlights.
The Bi-Xenon headlight system is
fit ted as standard. The brightness
of the lights is approximately
t wice as great as that of conven-
tional halogen lights. Light output
is improved and the road illu -
minated more uniformly on both dipped and main beam, helping
to minimise driver fatigue.
Also included is dynamic range
control to prevent hazardous
dazzling of oncoming vehicles
due to undulations in the road
or the loading of the car. A head -
light cleaning function is also
incorporated.
Dynamic cornering lights
(standard on 911 Turbo S models,
optional for 911 Turbo models)
of fer particularly ef fective
illumination of the road ahead,
especially through bends. Sen -
sors continuously monitor the
speed, lateral acceleration and
steering lock and, from these
variables, calculate the course
of the bend. This determines
the angle of illumination for the
dipped beam lights, up to a
maximum of 15 degrees. On

t wisting roads, this means the
course of the road and obstacles
can be seen earlier by the driver.
Lighting concept.
The lighting concept also benefits
from the latest technology, in the
form of high -performance LEDs
for the horizontal front indicators
and also for the separate day time
running lights, the taillights and
the third brake light in the rear
wing.
In addition to the distinctive look
that makes the car very recog -
nisable, the lighting also provides
high illuminating power. The brake
lights also respond very quickly,
meaning that following traf fic is
alerted sooner. Plus the lighting
saves energy, is environmentally
sound and has a longer service
life in comparison to conventional
bulbs.When the vehicle is opened or
closed using the key remote, the
‘Welcome Home’ lighting function
automatically switches on the
LED day time running lights.
Two additional lights inside each
door ensure you see and are seen
bet ter when get ting into and out
of the car.
One effective way of relaxing:
breathe steadily.
Safety.
Quickening pulses whilst
simultaneously creating
calm. Yet another apparent
contradiction typical
of the performance of the
911 Turbo concept.

Interior.
Efficient ergonomics is the guid-
ing theme for the interior. The
steering wheel of fers 40 mm of
adjustment for both height and
reach. A multifunction steering
wheel – with or without steering
wheel heating – is available on
request. The distinctively designed gear lever (for the six-
speed manual gearbox) and PDK
gear selector are easy to operate.
Porsche Communication Manage
-
ment (PCM) with a touchscreen is
fit ted as standard, as is the inte -
gral GPS navigation module with
hard drive navigation (page 86).
The new 911 Turbo S models come equipped with an integrated
six- disc CD/ DVD autochanger

and cruise control as standard.
The air- conditioning system with
an active carbon filter is fully
automatic. The leather finish on the seats,
dashboard, doors and rear
side panels is pleasing to the
touch. Available exclusively for
911 Turbo S models as standard
is the choice of t wo -tone leather
interior in either Black and Cream
or Black and Titanium Blue.
The centre console and door
storage compartments provide
storage space for personal items.
Below the passenger airbag are
t wo cup holders and below these
is the glove compartment with
CD storage.
Two 12-volt sockets (including the
cigaret te lighter) provide power
for a range of electrical devices.
Instruments.

The classic Porsche grouping of
five round instruments offers a
clear overview of all key informa -
tion.
The digital display in the centre-
left dial (speedometer) provides
main and trip odometer readings.
The central rev counter, featuring
the ‘turbo’ ‘or turbo S’ logo,
includes the standard on-board
computer display. This multi -
pur
pose field contains a perma -
nent digital speedometer as well
as the upshif t display on manual
models. The following optional information can also be displayed:
boost pressure, average speed,
average fuel consumption, t yre
pressure, current radio station,
navigation instructions and
remaining range till empt y. When
‘Sport ’ mode is selected on

the Sport Chrono Package Turbo
in a 911 Turbo model equipped
with dynamic engine mount
system, the temporary increase
in maximum torque is clearly
indicated by an arrow symbol in
the boost pressure display.
The third display, in the centre-
right dial, shows the time and
outside temperature.
Why do you need huge gestures
when the signs are clear?
Comfort.
An expressive design.
Well conceived technology.

A consistently sporty style.
No gimmicks. Why should the
rules for performance be
any different for the interior?

Universal audio interface.
With this standard feature, the
storage compartment in the
centre console will contain three
connections: one for your iPod
®,
one for a USB stick/ MP3-player
and one as an AUX interface for
any chosen compatible audio
source. The iPod
® or USB stick
can be operated conveniently and
safely via PCM, the optional multi -
function steering wheel or the
optional voice control system.
BOSE® Surround Sound System.
The standard BOSE® Surround
Sound System is optimally
matched to the specific interior
acoustics. A total of 13 loud -
speakers (12 in the 911 Turbo
Cabriolet models), including an active subwoofer and central
speaker, and a seven-channel
digital amplifier with a rated

output of 385 wat ts ensure an
impressive sound experience.
When playing music from audio
or video DVDs, the system
now has the impressive sound
spectrum of digital 5.1 recording.
Five dedicated audio channels
(front left, front right, centre,
surround lef t, surround right) and
a power channel for the bass
frequencies deliver a sound that
is as authentic as it is natural.
The 5.1 Discrete Surround Sound
is balanced, lifelike and crystal
clear. A 360 - degree sound
expe rience that is as close to a
live performance as you could
imagine.
Naturally, you can also play
conventional CDs, either in
stereo or in one of the surround
modes generated by the BOSE
®
Centerpoint
® technology. The
algorithm of Centerpoint
® II
extracts a precise and realistic
sound from the stereo signal. To complement these features,
the BOSE
® Surround Sound
System of fers a comprehensive
selection of equaliser presets for
customised sound. The dynamic
loudness function emphasises
the bass notes as the volume
decreases to compensate for the
diminishing sensitivit y of the human hearing at these frequen
-
cies. In addition, the AudioPilot®
Noise Compensation Technology
uses a microphone to continu -
ously measure the ambient noise
inside the vehicle and adapts
music playback automatically,
to give a constant sound qualit y
in all driving conditions.
In short, you are sit ting in a
concert hall – one of the fastest
there is.
