Sportec SP580 Porsche 911 Turbo


December 31st, 1969 Switzerland’s Sportec has released its latest package for the Porsche 911 Turbo, which includes a range of power mods, aerodynamic enhancements, plus chassis and suspension tuning. As if the 997 Turbo wasn’t powerful enough, the "Swiss made" performance pack lifts output to 580hp, resulting in a 0-100km/h time of just 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 338km/h or 210mph. The engine conversion kits come in four different flavors, offering power upgrades ranging from 530hp in the ‘Stage 1’ kit to 580hp and 765Nm of torque for the ‘Stage 4’ range topper. For its most powerful upgrade, engineers reprogrammed the car’s ECU, added a pair of Sportec’s own turbochargers and high flow exhaust kit, a sports air-filter and an upgraded clutch. To further improve dynamics, the developers added a high-performance braking system with six-piston callipers and brake discs ranging from 350 to 380mm. A sports suspension kit is then fitted, including firmer springs and new shock absorbers. Visually, the Sportec 911 Turbo remains much the same as the original. The tuned version does, however, feature a new front spoiler and rear wing to aid downforce at high speeds. Click ahead for a full gallery.

  1. Tastefully done though for the money I'd want a 4 point harness. Also, the wing looks a bit ridiculous from the side. Scale it back.

  2. One man's excess is another's subtle... :)

  3. I would love to have a ride around in one of those things! If only I could win tattslotto!...
