HOLY SH*T Techart does it again!!!!!

580 hp @6000 rpm AND 700 NM of tq @4850! more power thanks to bigger turbos, SS exhaust w/special manifolds and high performance cats
said to reach 210 mph! also has short shifter and addition airbox cooling. they also threw in a new body kit and reduced lift by 15% and 20% more downforce.

0-62 in 3.46 and i have a feeling thats a very consevative number since stock we have seen 3.4 sec to 60.

no clue, i want to know how they dealt with the VTG issue of the turbos? def a good amount of power, and to think, a reflash would def add prob another 50-60 hp and youd be well over 600 hp.

OT: Why are you so obsessed with rep?

I thought it's usually a niceity people give for positive, not something usually asked for.

Back on topic, beautiful car, I'm glad to see more Porsches are getting some love in white lately. I wonder what the GT Street will look like? Then we can get a shot of the 911 GT Street and the Cayman GT Sport together.

PRESS RELEASE/TECH SPECS:

World Debut at the ESSEN-MOTOR-SHOW 2006

TechArt Tuning for the new Porsche 911 Turbo
580 hp / 427 kW, 0 – 100 km/h in 3.46 Seconds, 339 km/h V/max

Maximum performance paired with optimized aerodynamics: TechArt Automobildesign turns the new Porsche 911 Turbo into one of the world's fastest and most powerful street-legal sports cars. 580 hp / 427 kW, 0 – 100 km/h in 3.46 seconds only and a maximum speed of 339 km/h are the most important performance figures of this car.

The 3.6 liter boxer engine was modified by TechArt in many details. Two bigger turbochargers contribute to the TechArt engine tuning just as the sports air filter and the stainless steel exhaust system with special manifolds and integrated high performance catalysts. All modifications get exactly tuned by the recalibrated ECU.
After the conversion the engine delivers 580 hp / 427 kW at 6,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 700 Nm at 4,850 rpm. Power transmission to all four wheels is made via a modified six-speed manual gearbox with TechArt gearshift travel shortage and additional gearbox-oil cooling. Of course the TechArt engine conversion is also available for cars with Tiptronic transmission.
The coupe tuned by TechArt is one of the world's fastest super sports cars: The two-seater coupe catapults from 0 - 100 km/h in 3.46 seconds. Maximum speed is 339 km/h.

These performance figures make greatest demands on perfectly balanced aerodynamics. The TechArt designers developed bodywork components in the wind tunnel which don't only give the 911 Turbo its distinctive look but especially optimal aerodynamic downforce and a drag coefficient reduced by 4 percent.

The TechArt front spoiler reduces aerodynamic lift by 15 percent. They also moulded a new wing profile for the retractable production rear spoiler which produces 20 percent extra downforce in conjunction with the TechArt rear diffuser. The understated TechArt roof spoiler visually stretches the roofline.
The TechArt side sills give the 911 top-of-the-line model a longer, sleeker look. The side mirrors can be attractively upgraded using the TechArt mirror moldings. The look is rounded out with moldings for the headlights.

Especially for the new Porsche 911 Turbo they developed the striking TechArt Formula five-spoke wheels in size 8.5Jx20 in front and in size 12Jx20 on the rear axle. TechArt recommends ContiSportContact 3 tires in sizes 245/30 ZR 20 and 325/25 ZR 20 for mounting on these wheels.

The TechArt VarioPlus coil-over suspension is available for the electronically adjustable PASM damper system of the new Turbo. This chassis offers not only an individually adjustable ride height by up to 25 millimeters, but also selectable 'Normal' and 'Sport' damper settings at the push of a button on the dashboard.
However, the settings are not limited to these presets. Both settings automatically firm up their damper rates during sporty driving. The result is an optimal symbiosis of excellent ride comfort during leisurely driving and agile, highly responsive handling during fast cornering.

As a world-renowned specialist for exclusive interior creations TechArt Automobildesign also offers individual interiors for the latest 911 top-of-the-line version in all colors and designs.
The 580 hp / 427 kW Turbo was upgraded with an exclusive TechArt CarboBlack leather trim, white cockpit panels matching the car's outside color and further sporty accessories. They include an ergonomically shaped airbag sport steering wheel, foot pedals, foot rest and shift **** all made from aluminum as well as stainless-steel sill plates with TechArt logo.

My initial reaction was: Whoa sick!!!

However the more I looked at it, the more the aero pieces looked tacked-on and not very integrated into the design of the car. Look at the fitment directly in front of the rear wheels and on the extreme ends of the front lip (from the frontal view). I am a big fan of their 996 stuff which was very distinctive and aggressive--but also complemented and exaggerated the existing qualities of the car.

Not awful, but I expected better.
