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

I was hoping to find a 4.0 or 4.2 somewhere, but that was listed nowhere.

No way it has less power. At least a 30hp bump. Will not be hybrid either. The last of the last Get in line gents. ADMs in the 6 figures

A host of aero/handling/brake upgrades etc etc

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.

I saw the motor, while at the factory yesterday, it is definitely not turbocharged. It is NA.

Best Regards,
Dave

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.
