The star of the show, however, has got be the addition of a 3.8-liter air-cooled engine. The flat-six engine has been lifted out of the 993 model but has been upgraded with Ninemeister (9M) cylinder heads, individual throttle bodies, 103 mm pistons, custom valve springs and retainers, a new camshaft, and a 997 GT3 crankshaft, oil pump and titanium connecting rods.
To make sure everything runs in harmony is a Motec M800 ECU with data logging and launch control functions. The end result is 425 horsepower and 340 pound-feet of torque, which is enough to propel the car from 0-60 mph in just 3.9 seconds. The transmission is a Getrag G50 six-speed close ratio unit with a lightweight flywheel and carbon-fiber twin-plate clutch.

Have you ever sat in old air cooled 911? They have GOBS of room. They are like a bubble car, high roofs and all.

White out · 09-26-2009, 07:38 AM
