    Modified by 9ff, this 911 Turbo produces 1000 HP!!! Top speed is 391 km/h. I fI am correct then regular 911 Turbo has a top speed of 311 km/h.

    391 km/h is insane - that's Bugatti Veyron territory.

    video and pics here.

    Veyron territory indeed, thats 243mph for those who need to know!!

    And considerably more affordable at just 130k€ + a standard 911 Turbo! :D

    LOL at the door mirrors, apart from those though, it doesnt look radically different!

    Wonder what tyres it uses though? I think the veyron needed bespoke tyres to exceed 250mph so i imagine this things needs bespoke tyres too..

    I'm guessing Continental tyres of some sort ;)

    yummy! anyone know what modifications were done to get the extra bhp (besides fitting a jet engine with afterburner)?

    Ahem
    engineers added larger turbochargers, an improved intercooler, sport camshafts, titanium con rods, crankshafts, a sport air filter, revised ECU and a new high performance exhaust system.

    Can I have one?

    Tbh, I'd have it over the Veyron in a heart beat.

    Why not just have a 911 turbo and €130k in your pocket?

    Why not just have a Carina and €130k in your pocket?

    Because the tuned one is faster and we like things when theyre faster

    Because how many people would take a tuned 911 over a Zonda(one example, plenty more)?
    Or a tuned vectra faster in a straight line than a 911?

    I'm not sure that's a fair comparison.
    911/Zonda=Super cars
    Vectra=Boring, even when tuned that much.

    I'll have the 911, thanks.

    Edit: Can they do the same thing with GT3 RS?

    Edit again: Yeah, I'll have this. http://www.speedlux.com/insane-1120-horsepower-9ff-gt9-r-revealed/

    this is just silly, id say it doesn't sound or feel like a 911 anymore its basically just a shell as most everything else is gone.


    Poor car.
