VarioCam.
The upgraded VarioCam system is an
engine timing concept that distinguishes
bet ween various engine speeds and
load states so that timing can be adapted
to suit the current power demand. It
regulates not only the adjustment of the
intake camshafts but also the exhaust
camshafts in order to deliver increased
power and torque.
Adjustments are controlled imperceptibly
by the new electronic engine manage
ment. The results are extremely smooth
running, better fuel economy, low emis
sions and, above all, high power and
torque across the entire engine speed
range.
Dry-sump lubrication.
The engine oil supply is vital at the limits
of sporty performance, especially
in the presence of the powerful lateral
and longitudinal forces that can be
experienced on the racetrack.
Two oil scavenge pumps per cylinder
head and t wo scavenge pumps in the
crankcase return the engine oil quickly
and efficiently to the external tank.
In conjunction with the electronically
controlled oil pressure pump, this means
that the engine has a reliable supply
of oil to the crankshaft drive and both
cylinder banks. The new 911
GT3 is factory filled with
Mobil 1 fully synthetic high performance
oil. The excellent lubrication properties of this oil ensure a reliable cold start, even
at ver y low temperatures, and contribute
not least to the durabilit y of the engine.
