Surprise for RS.2!
#181
So the outgoing 991.1 GT3RS has a power output of 368kW according to spec sheets.
I wonder if the 357kW is dyno +/- 10% manufacturing tolerances. If so then it's same output as outgoing 4.0L
The new .2 GT3RS motor is definitely normally aspirated. What was odd... is it had a 'spec/bar code' sheet, with smaller writing on that paper... and it showed 357KW and 450 Nm? Which doesn't seem to make any sense, so not much help, I also looked for 'any displacement' clues... and couildn't see anything. I was hoping to find a 4.0 or 4.2 somewhere, but that was listed nowhere.

Maybe the Surprise it is Turbo charged. Maybe that is what the hood scoops are for like on the GT2RS
Now the the GT2RS is out it may be the perfect time to roll our a Turbo charged GT3RS???

Makes zero sense to have a “baby GT2RS”. Besides, we are now getting into crazy world with prices nearing that of cup cars. In the 996/997 era, one could spec their GTS to have a similar MSRP as the GT cars......not anymore. And with ADM....forget about it.

Just thinking if motor is only plus 30hp than surprise most likely will be manual option. Porsche love to amortize pieces such as the 6 speed from the 911R.
