Video: 2011 Yellow Turbo S vs. 2013 Nissan GT-R http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLuI2R6mQ8w The Turbo S is actually quite luxurious. It offers all the
comfort features of the regular Turbo, to which it adds its own special leather upholstery.
We were more interested, however, in changes to the hardware. All the goodies
we recommend you choose on the regular Turbo are standard here: the dynamic engine mounts, Porsche’s
brake-based torque-vectoring system, ceramic brakes, and the Sport Chrono package,
which also nets you launch control. Porsche has included a beefed-up version of
the ultra-quick PDK (dual-clutch transmission) with new, proper shift paddles.
The six-speed manual that’s standard on the Turbo is not available here. The Turbo S’s 530 hp are available between 6250 and 6750
rpm. The added power is achieved through different intake-valve timing and
increased turbo boost pressure. Maximum torque is rated at 516 lb-ft, which
happens between 2100 and 4250 rpm. The Turbo S torque figure can be matched by
the regular Turbo, but only when that car is equipped with the Sport Chrono
package; it allows for a short overboost for up to 10 seconds, increasing boost from 11.6 psi
to 14.5. The latter is the standard pressure on the S. We can assure you the changes are effective. Throttle
response is even quicker, and the engine pulls more strongly at high rpm. It is
also louder, which
underscores the nature of this beast. The altogether slight but noticeable
performance gain translates into hard numbers. Porsche says 60 mph comes in 3.1
seconds for the coupe and 3.2 seconds in the cabriolet, 0.1 second quicker than
its estimations for the respective versions of the regular Turbo. We’ve already
clocked a Turbo coupe sprinting to 60 mph in a downright blistering 2.9
seconds, so it seems Porsche is being its usual underestimating self. We figure
the S will match our 0-to-60 time for the Turbo and improve by about 0.1 second
in the quarter-mile, to 10.9 seconds. Top speed of the Turbo S increases from a
claimed 194 mph to 195. As far as straight-line acceleration is concerned, the
Turbo S provides one of the grand experiences in motoring today, and to say it
pulls hard would be an epic understatement. The base model is sometimes eerily
quiet, but the S never conceals its nature. Ever. We were just as impressed by the S’s capabilities during
cornering, aided by the new Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV) system. The 996 and
the 997 displayed a hint of understeer when initiating a turn on slippery
surfaces. The torque-vectoring system, which applies the brake on the inside
rear wheel, eliminates the minor push entirely. The car gets slightly modified
front-suspension geometry, giving it more precise steering feel and making the
911 Turbo S seem almost like a mid-engine car. Porsche says lap times on the
Nurburgring have improved from 7:39 for the regular Turbo to 7:37. We have no
reason to doubt this claim. Speaking of speed and racetracks, quick pit-stop
wheel changes are facilitated by the central-locking “RS Spyder” wheels. Although a mid-engine car is by design dynamically superior
to a rear-engine car in most disciplines, the traction of the all-wheel-drive
Turbo S, which stands on 235/35ZR-19
front and 305/30ZR-19 rear Bridgestone Potenzas, is simply unbelievable.
It’s further enhanced by the dynamic engine mounts, which create a firm link
between engine and body as needed. But we’d still probably prefer some of its
mid-engine competitors at high triple-digit speeds, where the 911 requires
keeping both hands on the steering wheel. Porsche says 30 to 40 percent of Turbo customers upgrade
their cars with the aggressive carbon-ceramic brakes. Fade and wear are greatly
reduced versus cast-iron rotors. We like the fact that the carbon setup is
included on this model. It’s hard-biting response fits the sharpened character
of the Turbo S and gives a feeling of absolute control. Sport Plus More Sport The Sport Chrono package has really grown on us, managing to
change the personality of the car at the press of a button. In sport mode, the
chassis is stiffened by way of the active suspension, the PDK shifts later and
more rapidly, and the stability-control system intervenes later. Throttle
response is quickened, the engine computer switches to a hard rev limiter, and
the traction-management system sends more power to the rear. Sport provides a
noticeable difference from the standard program, which upshifts very early and
generally does a great job camouflaging this car’s wickedly aggressive
character. But to unleash the Turbo S’s full potential, you need to hit
the “sport plus” button. It’s the ultimate escalation. The PDK gives up trying
to “learn” your driving style, instead shifting late and hard. Seventh gear,
which exists solely for fuel economy, is abandoned entirely, and the engine is
recalibrated with more aggressive response from the variable turbocharger’s
dynamic blades. The ride stiffens considerably in sport plus mode, and you
notice every bump, but the car feels positively glued to the asphalt. This
program is so extreme that many drivers probably would get weary if they
couldn’t switch it off. But it is awesome.
The Turbo S exceeds the Turbo in price by about $26,500 in
coupe and convertible forms. As you start adding options to a regular Turbo,
the Turbo S quickly starts making sense. “It’s really quite a bargain,” said a
Porsche spokesman. |

'Faster. Farther.' dives into the history of Porsche racing tech
Wed, 07 Aug 2013No doubt, Porsche has produced some of the best endurance racecars around, such as the turbocharged, slant-nose 935 of the 1970s and the ground-effects-enhanced 956 and 962 of the 1980s. But the company's most famous racecar, its first overall winner at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, was the 917.
The 917 embodied many of Porsche's technological achievements up to that point, such as the company's first 12- and 16-cylinder engines (the flat-16 was never used in competition), fiberglass bodies that implemented early aerodynamic practices and the use of new, exotic materials, such as magnesium and titanium.
The racecar was commissioned by the head of Porsche Motorsports, Ferdinand Piëch, to win overall at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1970, after he realized a loophole in the rules that allowed cars to compete with engines up to five liters in the Sport category if they were also production models. Piëch saw opportunity: the top prototype class was restricted to three liters; the production minimum to compete in Sport was 25 cars. And so, with much effort, Porsche assembled 25 "production" 4.5-liter 917s and had them parked in a neat line for the race inspectors to verify their legitimacy. It didn't take long before people realized the new Porsches were much faster than the prototype racers, with a top speed approaching 250 miles per hour.
Muffler Man gets racing suit to mark progress on Porsche Experience Center
Sat, 19 Oct 2013In a dramatic change of careers, a fiberglass Muffler Man statue on the side of a busy Los Angeles freeway, formerly known as "Golf Guy," traded in his clubs for a Porsche driver's suit a couple days ago. It's no coincidence, as he's standing on land that the German automaker bought from the Dominguez Hills Golf Course a couple years ago to build its west coast Porsche Experience Center - which will be complete with a test track, restoration and maintenance facilities, a cafe and restaurant, a home for Porsche Motorsports North America and more, when it's finished in the fourth quarter of 2014.
The Porsche Muffler Man will serve as the gatekeeper to the 53-acre center and overlook the test track on the side of the 405 freeway. We can't think of a better job for a fiberglass giant that used to watch golf all day than to watch Porsche road cars and racecars getting wrung out on a test track in the middle of LA. Since Muffler Men are quite adaptable, we're sure this one will fit into his new role in no time - just as easily as he can double as Paul Bunyan.
Check out the press release below for more information on the Muffler Man and the experience center, which could be the ultimate adult playground when it's finished.
Audi says fixing diesel emission problem is simple
Fri, Dec 11 2015Audi reportedly has a simple repair nearly ready to fix the emissions problem on 85,000 vehicles with the 3.0-liter TDI V6 in the US. "Swift, straightforward and customer-friendly solutions are in discussion," company exec Rupert Stadler told workers in Germany, according to Reuters. In late November, Audi announced that the 3.0 TDI had three previously undisclosed auxiliary emission control devices, including one that was potentially considered a defeat device under US law. At the time, the German automaker claimed it could repair the problem with just a software update. Stadler's statement indicates that just such a simple fix might be on the way. Even before Audi's disclosure of the emission control devices, the Environmental Protection Agency issued a notice of violation against the 3.0-liter TDI for allegedly having software to defeat emissions tests, and the agency later expanded the scope to any vehicle with the engine from 2009 through 2016. The affected models include the Audi A6, A7, A8, Q5, Q7, Volkswagen Touareg, and Porsche Cayenne. New diesel versions of these vehicles have a stop-sale. Audi offered owners of affected vehicles the same $1,000 Goodwill Package that parent company VW offered to its affected diesel owners. The money is split up into a $500 gift card and $500 to spend at the Audi dealer. The package also comes with extended roadside assistance. Audi needs to find a solution quickly because it's under a 45-day deadline from the California Air Resources Board to submit a recall plan for the 15,000 vehicles with the 3.0 TDI in the state. The automaker also must include a report on any effects to fuel economy and performance from the proposed repair. Related Video:
