n 2000, Porsche launched the Turbo version of the Type 996. Like the GT3, the new Turbo engine derived from the 911 GT1 engine and, like its predecessor, featured twin-turbos and now developed 415 PS (309 kW). Also like its predecessor the new Turbo was only available with all wheel drive. A US$17,000 factory option, the X50 package, was available that boosted the engine output to a tidy 450 PS (331 kW) with 620 N·m (457 ft·lbff) of torque across a wide section of the power band. With the X50 package in place the car could make 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 3.8 seconds. This package is named as Turbo S in Europe. Later on toward the end of the 996 life cycle, a 996 Turbo S coupe also returned to the US along with a new debut of the Turbo S Cabriolet boosting even more power— 450 PS (331 kW) and 620 N·m (457 ft·lbff)— than the regular Turbo.

The Porsche 955 Cayenne was also optioned with what was commonly refered to as the "Power-Pack" which turned the CTT into a 500-HP beast with other upgrades such as brakes (floating rotors) etc. for a mere $19,000 on the options list.... Some also refered to it as the original Cayenne Turbo S which wasn't officially introduced as such until the release in 2006.
