It will handle extra capacity just like Porsche version.


FYI: Everyone keeps calling the Porsche high capacity AOS "Motorsport" I promise you Porsche Motorsport had NOTHING to do with it.

Up until a few months ago, Porsche Motorsports had never touched a mass production engine for the street cars. They are now developing the DFI engine for the Grand Am 997's (the GT3 Cup cars will go to this engine shortly) The new Turbo's are already DFI based on the 987/997/991 engines.

Unlike other vendors.. I like to test for awhile before we actually release something. I'd like to put a few more event weekends on it before we send out "test" samples.

When is your first event?

FYI: we are testing on a BoxsterS

Does this mean the "REAL" GT3 motors are going forever? Have I now got another good reason to hang on to my GT3?

There is a motorsports type AOS available for the m96 engine as I have on fitted to my 987 3.2. It was never generally available and pretty much a development item. It differs from the 996 motorsports AOS in that it has a profile to suit the secondary air pump location specific to the boXster and later cayman. Details of installation and part numbers etc can be found in the tech articles section of planet-9.com
