Hey everyone,
I finished an internship at Porsche Motorsport a couple of months ago.
Cannot tell a lot but you guys can expect 650+ HP.
There will be no GT2, only a RS
The Technical Project Leader (the guy below AP) gave the following spec requirement for the engine to "our" engine department: "If I am driving on the Autobahn at 300kph and then hit full throttle, I need to feel a punch in the back".
So it should be fun![Wink](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

+1 TomTomTom, thanks for posting.
The RS is about more. The GT2RS was about the most.
Now the RS will just be RS. Most down force, most weight loss, most grip,
most HP, most TQ, most lap records.

^+1 Sharing is caring,
But I am sure all can understand the sensitivity of the situation. Discretion is well deserved.
Please do continue.. That last tidbit was quite interesting,

Interns at PAG must not be required to sign NDAs? Or is this the cleaning lady dressed as an intern.
Either way, do tell. And don't worry, the Feds are only investigating the diesel side of the house.

When I left in September we still had a myriad of PVS ("Produktionsvorserie" = Second to last prototypes before the "0-Serie") cars of the GT3 and they had everything...
Manual
Manual without wing (!)
PDK-S
3,8l engine
4,0l engine
....
Even the "standard" engineers at my department did not know for sure what options they would offer in the end.
At one point it was "GT3 standard = Manual w/o wing" and the Clubsport package would include the wing and PDK-S
I think they killed the Non-Wing version though, but I wouldn't put my money on it.
4,2l engine what I read somewhere is bogus. Not possible with that engine block "safely".
I'd guess that they put the 4,0l engine from the RS with ~490hp (or even the same as RS/R with 500hp) in it.
