ok im trying all the forums that have to do with turbo. i have a bet with someone that the porsche with the script TURBO on the back also comes RWD as well as AWD. Is there any evidence to show this if there is any from 90 to now.So far i found that the 911 comes standard AWD from 2000 and up in the turbo edition. Any help would be great.

Street turbos from 96 to present have been AWD with a couple of exceptions, 993 GT2, 996 GT2. Turbos prior to 96 have been RWD with the exception of the 959.

I re-read the question. If the criteria are (1) Word 'Turbo' on rear deck, AND (2) RWD, I don't know, because GT2 does not say turbo in the back. Just says GT2.

You have to go to pre-993 turbos to find RWD I believe. However, do they make one (930 turbo I guess) that is 90 MY or newer, that I don't know.

Now mine is a turbo AND is RWD, but mine only says RUF on the rear deck. That's an interesting bet, please keep us posted on what you find. What's the booty BTW?

Yes, the 964 Turbo just said *Turbo* on the rear deck. Then came the *Turbo 3.6* in 1994. After that, it was the 993 with AWD and the 993 GT2 which only said *GT*.

Viken,

Is the 964 Turbo available in RWD?

964 Turbo (965) was RWD only, in all normal versions.

993 Turbo was the first Turbo that Porsche made with AWD

Viken

As per Rassel's post, the 964 Turbo was only RWD.

Actually second, after the 959. BTW, which was also twin turbo.

Rassel

It didn't say Turbo on the back of the 959

I wasn't responding to whether or not it said turbo on the back.

Just to your original quote of the first turbo with AWD.

Are guy's sure that the 964 3.6L motor turbo was RWD, i thought it was AWD. But, even if it was AWD as Viken say it may have said "Turbo 3.6" on the back.

911/Q45

We really are starting to pick the fly poop out of the pepper on this thread!

The 1994 Turbo was RWD and said Turbo 3.6 on the decklid. Prior to that, 964 Turbos were also RWD but said Turbo on the decklid.
