56 911 Tu r b o | Concept
Given that the starting point is the
most recent 911 Turbo, how do
you make a new 911 Turbo that
performs at an even higher level?
How do you make its engine produce
more power with less fuel? Its
transmission shift more seamlessly,
its suspension grip the road with
more traction, and its brakes shed
speed with even more force and less
fade? Its exterior more aerodynamic
and its interior more functional and
comfortable? How do you make its
safety engineering more advanced? How do you, in other words, evolve
the legendary 911 Turbo and
enhance its capabilities—without
diluting its essential character?
It ’s a daunting challenge, yet
one Porsche engineers confront
with clear-eyed goals and race-
proven technical innovations.
There are measurable objectives:
improved g-force, horsepower, and
torque outputs, shorter braking
distances, and quicker zero-to-sixty
times. And there are more subjective considerations: the sound of the engine,
the support of the seats, the feeling of
confidence and control that results from
a total synergy bet ween car and driver.
It ’s a process that requires, above all,
patience. A new technology may take
time to translate its advantages to meet
the aims of a Porsche. A promising
idea may prove less so when subjected
to our test circuit at Weissach or to
the extreme demands of endurance
races like the 24 Hours of Le Mans
or the Twelve Hours of Sebring.
But the reward for following a highly
disciplined process is unquestionable.
With each successive 911 Turbo,
Porsche engineers have demonstrated
that ever-higher levels of performance
remain to be discovered.
And the new 911 Turbo is no exception.
With 90 percent of its components
redeveloped, it once again provides a
new reference for Porsche excellence.
At Porsche, we prefer to lead by example.

To Porsche engineers, the 911 Turbo
has always been about turning the
theoretical into the phenomenal.
It has been relentless work, with
countless long hours over the
decades spent seeking incremental
improvements, fighting for every gram
of weight reduction, every increase in
horsepower, and every split second of
speed. Each breakthrough has pushed
the limits of possibilit y, and each stage
has established the next starting point. Once again we have arrived at an
entirely new 911 Turbo, with more
power than that of previous models:
520 horsepower at 6000 – 6500 rpm
and a maximum torque of 487 lb.-ft.
The sprint from 0 – 60 mph can be
achieved in as lit tle as 3.2 seconds.
The optional Sport Chrono Package
reduces this figure even more:
to just 3.0 seconds. And the new
911 Turbo now uses Porsche Active
Aerodynamics (PA A) to dynamically
optimize the level of traction at speed.The power of its new 3.8-liter
twin-turbo engine combined with
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK)
and active all-wheel-drive Porsche
Traction Management (PTM)
results in a new 911 Turbo with a
top track speed of 195 mph.
A trio of technologies help the new
911 Turbo balance handling precision
with ride comfort. They feature new
rear-axle steering, Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM), and
Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV
Plus) including rear differential lock. At each corner of the new 911 Turbo
are 20-inch, 10-spoke wheels in a
unique two-tone combination.
The interior follows one clear line:
sport y, yet comfortable. Leather
trim is standard as are the Power
Sport Seats including electric
steering-column adjustment.
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM) with navigation module brings
all information together clearly and
has intuitive controls. The Bose
®
Surround Sound System enhances the
typical Porsche melody with another
impressive symphonic experience.

1718 911 Tu r b o | The new 911 Turbo S
Good enough is simply not in the DNA
of a Porsche engineer. There is always
more performance to be found, more
boost to be dialed up, another plateau
of driving precision to be discovered.
And when those objectives
are reached, Porsche typically
marks them with an “S.” Witness the new 911 Turbo S. Its 3.8-liter,
6-cylinder, twin-turbo engine delivers
560 horsepower bet ween 6500 and
6750 rpm—that ’s 40 horsepower more
than on the new 911 Turbo. The maximum
torque is 553 lb.-ft. with overboost, a
function of the standard Sport Chrono
Package. The benchmark sprint from
0 – 60 mph takes a mere 2.9 seconds.
The top track speed is 197 mph.In the new 911 Turbo S, power is
transmit ted by the 7-speed Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK) to the active
all-wheel-drive Porsche Traction
Management (PTM). The Sport
Chrono Package includes dynamic
engine mounts fit ted as standard.
Porsche Active Aerodynamics
(PA A) aids high-speed stabilit y by
enabling dynamic adjustment of
the front and the rear spoilers.
Somehow, Porsche engineers

always find a higher level of performance.

The 911 Turbo S also deploys the new
rear-axle steering. This combines the
exceptional agilit y expected of a high-
performance sports car with the driving
ease that allows the new 911 Turbo
owner to enjoy everyday practicalit y.

The power of air.
As applied by Porsche.
The new 911 Turbo Cabriolet and 911 Turbo S Cabriolet.
The 911 Turbo is an exercise in
exploiting the power of air. The new
911 Turbo Cabriolet and Turbo
S

Cabriolet? All the more so.
The newly developed fabric cabriolet
top and electric wind deflector in the
911 Turbo Cabriolet models provide the
best conditions for plent y of fresh air.
The key points: They are convenient and
quick to operate, create lit tle drag while
driving, and there is minimal wind noise.
And now, for the first time in a Turbo
Cabriolet, the 911 silhouette is just as
unmistakable as in a 911 Turbo Coupe. Both models are driven by a 3.8-liter
t win-turbo engine. In the new 911 Turbo
Cabriolet, it develops 520 horsepower
at 6000 – 6500 rpm and a maximum
torque of 487 lb.-ft. The top track
speed is 195 mph and it reaches its
60 -mph mark in just 3.3 seconds.
With an additional 40 horsepower, the
engine in the new 911 Turbo S Cabriolet
delivers even more, specifically:
560 horsepower bet ween 6500 and
6750 rpm. The maximum torque, with
overboost, is 553 lb.-ft., enabling
a top speed of 197 mph and a breathtaking sprint from 0–60 mph
in a mere 3.0 seconds.
The enhanced Porsche Doppelkupplung
(PDK) transmission is precise and direct,
transmit ting power to all four wheels
via the active all-wheel-drive capabilities
of Porsche Traction Management
(PTM). Rear-axle steering helps further
the aim of handling precision.
Another way to tap the power of air?
Porsche Active Aerodynamics (PA A).
It ’s an innovation Porsche developed
for the racetrack, where rapid changes
in downforce dynamics can poise a challenge to high-speed stabilit y. The
solution is the active adjustment of the
front and rear spoilers to constantly
optimize aerodynamic downforce
over the front and rear axles.
The new 911 Turbo Cabriolet boasts 20 -
inch two-tone wheels as standard, while
on the new 911 Turbo S Cabriolet, 20 -inch
t wo -tone 911 Turbo S wheels with central
locking device are standard. All wheels
are forged and polished on the front.
The new 911 Turbo Cabriolet models: our
new benchmark for open-top driving.

2728 Power | Engine
The new 911 Turbo engine adheres
to proven Porsche principles: rear-
mounted. With six cylinders and a total
displacement of 3.8 liters. And the
cylinders placed horizontally in two
opposite rows—what ’s referred to as
a “ flat-six” arrangement. It does not
deviate from this formula because the
typical Porsche “boxer” construction
and the rear-mounted position of the
engine create numerous advantages:
excellent balancing of masses as
dynamic loads change, a low-vibration
drive, and a low center of gravit y. But what ultimately transforms a Porsche
into a 911 Turbo are its t wo exhaust-
driven turbochargers. Together with
Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG), the
intake manifold, and VarioCam Plus,
the forced induction of compressed
air into the cylinders creates stunning
performance. On paper or on pavement,
there is nothing like a Porsche 911 Turbo.
The new 911 Turbo and the
new 911 Turbo Cabriolet deliver
520 horsepower available between
6000 and 6500 rpm, and 487 lb.-ft. of torque bet ween 1950 and 5000 rpm
(a
nd briefly up to 524 lb.-ft. with the
overboost function that comes with
the optional Sport Chrono Package).
The 911 Turbo S models have
560 horsepower available between
6500 and 6750 rpm. The maximum
torque is 516 lb.-ft., from 2100 –4250 rpm.
And it can increase to 553 lb.-ft., thanks
to the overboost function that comes
with the Sport Chrono Package, which
is standard on Turbo S models. This is efficient performance, thanks
to intelligent innovations that keep
the vehicle weight low and make
optimal use of fuel. These include new
efficiency-enhancing measures such as
thermal management, electrical system
recuperation, the Auto Start Stop
function, and the coasting function.
The essential ingredients are familiar.
Yet transformation is phenomenal.
Engine.

2930 Power | Engine
Both versions of the new engine have
Direct Fuel Injection (DFI). DFI injects
the fuel directly into the combustion
chamber with millisecond precision.
Injection and taper angle are optimized
for torque, performance, consumption,
and emissions. The engine control
system adjusts the injection timing
individually for each cylinder and the
injection quantit y for each cylinder
bank. The greater compression this achieves provides more power—and
makes the engine more efficient.
The integrated dry-sump lubrication
ensures reliable oil supply and also
performs additional cooling functions.
The electronic oil pump supplies oil
when it is needed. And because the oil
reservoir is integrated in the engine,
there is no need for an external oil tank.
This saves space and, above all, weight.
The 3.8-liter, 6-cylinder boxer engine
is made with a light weight alloy
design. The engine’s impressive
power-to-weight ratio increases
agilit y and optimizes fuel efficiency. The connecting rods and aluminum
pistons are forged for added
strength, and each piston is
individually cooled by oil injection
nozzles in each cylinder. The cylinders are made from an aluminum alloy
that offers exceptional resistance
to the punishing heat generated
by a high-performance engine.
The result—for you, and for the
911 Turbo driving experience—

is an engine with extraordinary
power and surprisingly low
consumption, especially when
compared to engines with
greater displacement.

Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG)
One of the critical factors in designing a
turbocharged engine has always been the
size of the turbo units. Large turbines
create massive boost, but suffer “ turbo
lag” as they begin to spool up. Smaller
turbines respond more quickly, but lack
the capacit y to induce large amounts
of exhaust air. With Variable Turbine
Geometry (VTG), Porsche engineers
have resolved this conflict. As exhaust
flow from the engine is channeled into
the turbines, the engine management
system controls the electronically
adjustable guide vanes, changing the
vane angle so the system can replicate
the advantages of both sizes of turbo,
large and small. The optimal gas-flow
characteristics are achieved at all times. This results in a high turbine speed—
and greater boost pressure—even
at low engine rpm. With more air
available, the combustion is increased,
yielding bet ter power and torque. The
torque curve reaches its maximum
level much sooner—and stays there.
V TG also improves the response
of the turbo engine with dynamic
boost pressure development.
When the boost pressure reaches
its maximum value, the guide vanes
are opened further. By varying the
vane angle, it is possible to achieve
the required boost pressure over the
entire engine-speed range, so excess
pressure valves are no longer required.
Porsche revolutionized the modern
sports car with the original 911 Turbo.
And with innovations such as Variable
Turbine Geometry (VTG) in the new
911 Turbo, the revolution carries on.
VarioCam Plus
VarioCam Plus is a two-in-one engine
concept that adjusts the camshafts on
the intake side and controls valve lift.
The system distinguishes bet ween
normal everyday driving and maximum
power requirements and adapts to
the corresponding conditions. The
switchover is performed imperceptibly
by the electronic engine management
system. The result is spontaneous
acceleration, an extremely quiet drive,
and extraordinary engine power with
comparatively low fuel consumption. press as much of the air/fuel mixture as
possible into the cylinders. But added
compression not only increases air
volume—it also raises air temperature.
And this has a negative effect on ignition.
The 911 Turbo model’s expansion
manifold turns that principle around. The
internal geometry is radically different
from that of a resonance intake system.
Key modifications include a longer
distributor pipe with a smaller diameter,
and shorter intake pipes. As a result,
the air is in the expansion phase as it
enters the combustion chambers.
Since expansion always cools, the air/
fuel temperature is lower, ignition is
significantly improved, and—here’s the
best part—performance is increased.
Expansion Intake Manifold
More power using less fuel. Sounds
paradoxical, but it ’s really quite simple.
You just have to question the norm.
Take the intake manifold in the new
911 Turbo models, as an example. With
a traditional resonance manifold, more
air means more power. The compression
effect in the intake system is used to The amount of air that enters the engine
under expansion is less than it would
be under compression. To compensate
for this, Porsche engineers simply
increased the boost pressure. The
resulting increase in temperature—again
through compression—is immediately
offset by the uprated intercoolers.
Instead of hot compressed air entering
the combustion chambers, the cooler
air generates more power and torque.
As a consequence, there is a major
improvement in engine efficiency.
Fuel consumption is lower, even under
heav y loads and at high revs.
