My take: Gt3 would be 520hp 4.0 (essentially 991.2 gt3rs) and gt3rs would have electric motor on top of it. Gt2rs would just be more hp with bigger turbos..

. and say it's "CONFIRMED" that GT3 will NOT go turbo. It's quite logical in fact to see that 992.2 could go hybrid-NA.. . Porsche would not have put this much development money into hybrid if this weren't the plan for trickle-down into other cars. 992.2 will be NA-hybrid, if you connect the dots, you will know this to be true.
btw, I suggest just buy a car TODAY drive it
come to RL and see what other are speculating or dry humping about what the next car is, which may or may not be good, may or may not have allocation for them, and they mAY or may not be alive that long to drive it.

Irrelevant whether turbo or not, sure it will be faster and more advanced than current 991 just like 991 was vs 997. Will also have a different flavor, so should be fun waiting for it.
Is 992 gt3 expected to also be heavier than 991 version?

Water injection in the NA motor? They didn’t even do that with the GT2 RS (just external intercooler sprayer). Seems doubtful...

600hp from an NA 4.0 would be epic. Here is the write up on the Bosch system in the M4GTS which presumably would be what would be fitted to the GT3 if the article is correct.

My question is what do you do when it is below freezing? It’s 7 degrees out right now where I am. What do 2RS owners do? Is there a drain or something or do you just not park or drive in freezing temps? The only similar systems I am aware of run 50/50 methanol/water so it does not freeze. In fact my friend who has such a system on his Cummins would just run winter washer fluid in it.

The article is clearly wrong (mixing info from different models, and not even accurate then) - don’t get swept up in that bs.
You are not going to get 150 hp per Liter NA with new Euro emissions standard and a warranty. Or even without new emissions standard...
