I currently drive a BMW 335i which has a 3.0 inline 6 twin turbo which puts out 300hp 300tq. How do porsche 911 turbo's get so much hp out of their inline 6 tt engines??

 

psst..they aren't inline, they are a horizontally opposed 6 with two turbos and a horribly awesome short exhhaust path nooice and hot into each turbo bank. Highly efficient engine with a great ecu and boost=

 

The horses in Stuttgart are bigger and stronger than the ones in Munich.

 

 

Although, let us all hope and pray, that the folks at VW don't change horse breeds. It would be a shame to be left with these:

 

it is truly amazing how this "little" flat 3.6 lt engine can produce such ridiculous power.

My 997.1 turbo is fully stock power wise and i take down almost any engine size lol.

Even crazier is the gt2 RS! same sized engine with 600+ hp lol

that will beat everything, litteraly /endthread

 

Many years of practice.

 

Two different car companies with very different philosophies.

It's running 1.6 BAR from the factory.

It's very fast for a bone stock car.

 

I think this is the Porsche inline (of) 6 hes talking about

 

Why doesn't Porsche go with quad turbo instead of triple turbo for next 911 turbo?

 

To be fair, BMW sandbagged the thing b/c the E46 M3 was still available. It didn't take the testers/rags long to figure out the 335i was closer to 350/350 stock (290-300 at wheels). This is at 7psi boost. A $500 tune (JB4), BMS filter and good gas or E85 nets 410 at the wheels (seen dynos on E90 post or N54tech). For what we pay for a tune only, they get big power
