Gemballa tunes 911 Turbo to 550hp







We’ve already seen that the new Porsche 911 Turbo is nothing short of astonishing, but if you want even more power, German tuner Gemballa has come to the rescue with the Turbo GT 550. The modified 911 pumps out 550hp and 780Nm of torque, a healthy boost over standard trim.

Gemballa attains these values by fitting a power kit comprising a complete exhaust gas system, including metal sports catalysts and a modified engine management system. The Turbo GT 550 requires less than 3.8 seconds to go from 0 to 100 km/h, and this is cut to 3.6s with overboost. Top speed is bumped up to 318 km/h, making the Turbo GT 550 some 8 km/h faster than the production version.

Visually, the Turbo GT gets a new aero kit incorporating front spoiler, side skirts, and larger rear spoiler. New 20” racing wheels are also installed along with a coilover suspension for enhanced handling. On the inside, Gemballa has fitted a new sports steering wheel with a 340 mm-diameter.

Beautiful car, wing is too big and drivers side exhaust is not properly aligned. Looks crazy in black though, very nice.
