Techart Unleashes Beastly Porsche 911 Turbo S with 789bhp Power Upgrade
German tuner Techart has left enthusiasts in awe with the unveiling of the GT Street R Touring – a stunning sports car based on the Porsche 911 Turbo S, boasting a plethora of aerodynamic enhancements, lightweight materials, and an impressive power output of up to 789bhp.
Catering exclusively to performance enthusiasts, the GT Street R Touring seamlessly blends everyday practicality with unparalleled driving performance. Setting itself apart from the standard 911, this model features an aerodynamically optimized body kit consisting of 40 individual components, including carbon fibre front and rear bumpers, flared wheel arches, bonnet, front wings, side skirts, and larger air intakes.
The rear of the vehicle is adorned with a new carbon fibre ducktail spoiler, inspired by racing design, which not only reduces weight by 60% compared to the standard Porsche spoiler but also enhances engine cooling, as highlighted by Techart.
The 3.7-litre twin-turbocharged flat-six engine has undergone internal modifications to deliver 700bhp and 663lb ft of torque. For those seeking the ultimate upgrade, Techart offers a staggering 789bhp and 701lb ft package, propelling the car from 0-62mph in just 2.5 seconds and reaching a remarkable top speed of 217mph.
With power enhancements including an ECU remap, improved turbochargers, and adjusted gearbox ratios, this powerhouse matches the acceleration of a Bugatti Veyron to 62mph, while sharing the same top speed as the new V12 hybrid Lamborghini Revuelto. Additionally, Techart has equipped the GT Street R Touring with a bespoke sports exhaust system featuring wider twin exits and adjustable valves for varying exhaust notes.
Enhancing its agility on the road, the vehicle boasts a 30mm wider front track, 25mm-lowered springs, adjustable coilovers, and lightweight forged alloys available in 20in or 21in sizes. Furthermore, it includes a practical feature from the standard model where the front end can be raised to navigate speed bumps or level crossings effortlessly.
