TECHART TUNING // GT STREET R

Yet another 997 911 Turbo with a few extra bits. German tuning house Techart, famous for adding fuel to a fire, has kicked the power output of the 'standard' 911 Turbo up to 660bhp and 634lb/ft of torque, in what they are calling the Techart GTstreet R. Upgraded turbos, larger carbon fiber intake, improved intercoolers and a redesigned exhaust all help to increase power and take the Porsche from 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. A claimed top speed of 214mph makes this one wild Porsche, and that's just the go fast bits. An upgraded coil-over suspension, 20-inch wheels and a wind tunnel tested, carbon fiber body kit and spoiler (which adds nearly 22 additional pounds of downforce) sets this Turbo apart from your neighbors. Additional carbon fiber is available, but we like the subtle touch, no need for fiber weave hood, fenders, doors, dash, door sills, door handles, headlight bezels....you get the idea. We like it, but then again, who wouldn’t // 10.31.2008
