911 Turbo Cabriolet
Porsche Stabilit y Management
(PSM, page 56) and Porsche
Active Suspension Management
(PASM, page 53) are standard
across the 911 Turbo model
range. The Porsche Ceramic
Composite Brake (PCCB, page
68) is fit ted as standard exclu -
sively on 911 Turbo S models.
Standard on 911 Turbo S and
optional on 911 Turbo models is
the Sport Chrono Package Turbo
with dynamic engine mount
system (page 58). It has a whole
host of performance-enhancing
functions. The ‘overboost ’ on
911 Turbo models, for example,
briefly raises boost pressure
when accelerating in the lower
and mid-engine speed ranges to
provide an additional 50 Nm of
torque. On 911 Turbo S models,
the permanently increased
maximum boost pressure guaran-
tees that a maximum torque
of 700 Nm is available for an
unlimited period.
When combined with PDK, the
SPORT PLUS but ton can activate
‘Launch Control’, for optimum acceleration from a standing
start, or the motorsport- derived
gearshift strategy for racing-st yle
gear changes. The dynamic
engine mount system improves
ride comfort and vehicle
dynamics whilst also providing
more stable handling. The
system reduces the oscillations
and movements of inert masses
in the drive assembly by auto -
matically changing the stiffness
and damping characteristics of
the engine mounts.
As is so t ypical of the 911 Turbo,
comfort and sound are not
neglected either. Porsche
Communication Management
(PCM, page 86), including a
navigation module and 6.5-inch
touchscreen, and the BOSE
®
Surround Sound System both
come as standard. The standard
specification of the 911 Turbo S
models gives you even more,
such as the integrated six-disc
CD/ DVD autochanger, adaptive
sports seats and cruise control.
It sounds, therefore, as though
the 911 Turbo model range has got it all. Apart from weight, that
is. The doors and bonnet are
made of aluminium and the
engine is particularly light weight
thanks to the use of light alloys
and integral dry-sump lubrication.
Forged 19-inch 911 Turbo II wheels
on the 911 Turbo models and
forged
19-inch RS Spyder wheels
with
a central locking device on
the
911 Turbo S models keep the
unsprung masses low. The result
is a power-to -weight ratio of
3.1 kg / hp for the Coupé and
3.3 kg / hp for the Cabriolet
(911 Turbo S models: 3.0 kg / hp
and 3.1 kg / hp respectively).
The technology of the 911 Turbo
and 911 Turbo S models has
enabled a balance to be achieved. It increases power at the same
time as maintaining comparatively
low fuel consumption figures and
CO
2 emissions, showing that,
at Porsche, efficiency and power
are inseparable.

The st yling is dynamic without
being fussy. Sport y without being
ostentatious. In short, no gim
-
micks, no showiness, no doubts.
The side air-intake grilles in
the front apron have titanium-
coloured painted slats. To the
right or lef t respectively of the
grilles are the day time running
lights, positioned low down.
Like the indicators, they utilise
LED technology to provide
increased illumination and give
a characteristic look. Optional
dynamic cornering lights are an
additional safet y feature (standard
on 911 Turbo S models).
Glancing over the sides of the
911 Turbo models, you will notice
the linear, no -frills t win -spoke
design of the 911 Turbo II wheels. Elements of the spokes and wheel
rim have a high -sheen finish. The
wheels are forged and the sophis
-
ticated technology facilitates a
light weight, yet highly rigid design.
On the 911 Turbo S models, the
forged aluminium wheels in the
RS Spyder design with a central
locking device provide a good
glimpse of the yellow brake cali -
pers of the standard Porsche
Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB,
page 68).
The rear features LED taillights
that extend right round to the
wings where they taper to a point.
The LED brake lights respond
extremely quickly, thereby
increasing active safet y. In other
words, the traffic behind is
warned sooner.
The t wo tailpipes are positioned
neatly in the recesses of the
rear apron and provide a visual
reminder of the engine’s increased
power.
A characteristic feature of the
911 Turbo is the rear wing, which
extends at 120 km/ h (75 mph),
retracting again when vehicle
speed drops to around 60 km/ h (37 mph). The drag coefficient
is just 0.31 (Cabriolet models:
0.32).
The interior design is also charac -
teristic: sport y, unclut tered and
ergonomically refined. Careful
consideration has been given to
the interior geometry and there
is a generous amount of occupant
space. The gear lever design
is exclusive to 911 Turbo models
equipped as standard with the
manual gearbox. Reserved for
911 Turbo S models is the t wo -tone
leather interior with contrasting
seams on the seats, door panels
and dashboard.

The new 911 Turbo S.
The new 911 Turbo S is perhaps
the embodiment of one of the
original Porsche principles: to
make do is not an option. To
stand still is inconceivable. We
move on, and more awaits around
the corner. Never anxious, always
cool and composed. Looking
forward at all times. This is why we
gave the 911 Turbo S even more. As a result of a modified valve
control system and an adaptation
of the engine management,
combined with an increase in
maximum boost pressure by
0.2 bar to 1.2 bar, the 3.8-litre
boxer engine develops 390 kW
(530 hp) bet ween 6,250 rpm and
6,750 rpm. The maximum torque
is an impressive 700 Nm bet ween
2,100 rpm and 4,250 rpm. This
means an extra 30 hp and 50 Nm
compared with the 911 Turbo. Yet, even though power output
has been increased, fuel consump
-
tion and CO2 emissions remain
at the same low level thanks to
the use of efficient technologies
such as DFI, Variable Turbine
Geometry (V TG), VarioCam Plus
and the expansion intake manifold.
Visually, the engine is distin -
guished by an air filter housing
with a carbon-weave finish and
the ‘turbo S’ logo.
The 911 Turbo S models represent
power in pure form, and they
have the performance figures
to prove it. With the standard
com bination of PDK and the Sport
Chrono Package Turbo with
dynamic engine mount system,
the 911 Turbo S storms through
the 100 km/ h (62 mph) mark from
a standing start in just 3.3 sec -
onds – the fastest ever achieved
by a Porsche production car.
0 to 200 km/ h (124 mph): 10.8
seconds. Top speed: 315 km/ h
(196 mph). It has even been pos -
sible to improve driving dynamics,
thanks not least to the standard-
fit ted Porsche Torque Vectoring
(PT V) including a mechanically
locking rear differential.
At Porsche, whenever we provide
more power as standard, we natu -
rally include extra safet y features
as standard, too. The track-proven
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB) and the dynamic cornering
lights are t wo examples.
Also fit ted as standard are the
light weight, forged RS Spyder
wheels with a motorsport-derived
central locking device.
Inside, the three-spoke sports
steering wheel with gearshif t
paddles is pleasing to the eye,
and to the touch. The gearshif t
logic comes straight from the
racetrack: pull the right-hand
paddle to shift up, pull the left-
hand paddle to shift down.
Other standard features include
the adaptive sports seats, the
six- disc CD/ DVD autochanger
integrated into the PCM, cruise
control, the choice of t wo -tone
leather interior in Black and
Cream or Black and Titanium Blue
exclusive to the 911 Turbo S models,
and the windscreen
with a grey top-tint.
Visual cues that hint at the
enormous power within are the
‘ turbo S’ logos on the door sill
guards, rev counter, rear lid and
plaque on the upper section of
the air cleaner.

powerful interpretation of the
911 Turbo concept there has ever

Porsche Stability Management
(PSM).
PSM, an automatic vehicle sta-
bilit y control system designed to
aid the driver in critical road
scenarios, is fit ted as standard.
Sensors monitor the direction,
speed, yaw velocit y (speed of
rotation around the vertical axis)
and lateral acceleration of the car.
Using this information, it is
possible to calculate the actual
direction of travel at any given
moment. If the car begins to over -
steer or understeer, PSM applies
selective braking on individual
wheels to restore stabilit y and
optimum speed. Whenever PSM is
required to intervene, an indicator
light in the cockpit flashes.
When accelerating on wet or other
low-grip surfaces, PSM combines
with PTM and uses the automatic
brake differential (ABD) and anti-
slip regulation (ASR) functions to
maintain traction and stabilit y.
Included as standard equipment,
PSM assists with high -precision
inputs that enhance the agilit y of
each model. When ‘Sport ’ mode is selected on the Sport Chrono
Package Turbo with dynamic
engine mount system (page 58),
the PSM threshold is raised
higher still to enable greater
driver involvement – particularly
at speeds of up to 70 km/ h
(44 mph).
PSM includes ABS to help mini -
mise braking distances. System
inputs are smooth and precise
for greater driver comfort.
Active safet y is further enhanced
with the aid of t wo additional
brake functions: electronic brake
prefill and brake assist.
The prefill function is automati-
cally enabled whenever the
throt tle pedal is suddenly released.
The pressure in the brake lines
is marginally increased, bringing
each of the pads into light contact
with the corresponding disc. If
the driver then decides to use the
brakes, the system can apply
the maximum force with virtually
no delay.
The brake assist function, by
contrast, is specifically designed
for use in emergency stops.
When the speed of brake pedal
application and the pressure on
the brake pedal exceed a prede -
fined threshold, the hydraulics
automatically apply the necessary
pressure to achieve maximum
deceleration. For a more actively involved
driving experience, PSM can be
manually disabled. PSM remains
present in the background and
will only intervene under heav y
braking where at least one front
wheel requires ABS assistance
(in ‘Sport ’ mode, if both front
wheels require assistance). The
automatic brake differential
(ABD) remains active at all times.

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
