Американская тюнинг-фирма Switzer Performance Innovation (SPI) из города Оберлин (Огайо) выпустила свой новый пакет тюнинга производительности для полноприводного Porsche 997TT. Пакет P800 позволяет получить мощность 800 л.с. – так-же как и у Switzer Performance Porsche GT2, выпущеном в июне 2009 года.
Возможности Switzer P800 AWD Porsche 997TT впечатляют – всего 3 секунды от 0 до 100 км/ч! Это стало возможным в первую очередь благодаря особым турбонагнетателям GT30 с уникальными крыльчатками, интеркуллерам Switzer MONSTER, электронному буст-контролю, высококачественным коллекторам, производительной системой выпуска и карбоновым сцеплением.
Под катом – больше фотографий, видео динамометрического теста и полный текст пресс-релиза (на английском).
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Oberlin, OH – 30JUL2009 – 800 hp Switzer L5 PKG for 997TT
When Tym Switzer and his crew at Ohio-based Switzer Performance introduced their 800 hp P800 package for Porsche’s track-focused GT2 back in June, a number of inquiries expressed significant interest in the package, but a number of customers asked if they could get the same level of power from the AWD 997TT.
Switzer’s answer was a resounding "Yes!", which brings us to the car pictured here – an 800 hp, all-wheel drive "Yes!" that takes advantage of the 997’s superior traction and shorter gearing to deliver staggering acceleration figures. Think sub 3-second 0-60 runs and 1/4 mile times consistently under 10.5, and you start to get the idea: this car is a monster.
"The P800 kit for the GT2 evolved from the SLEDGEHAMMER project car that ran in the 9’s last year," offers Tym, "that was a race-gas package, but as the program developed, we were able to move to a more streetable package and keep the factory DME, unlike the SLEDGEHAMMER, which used a stand-alone system. Other than that, everything that made the SLEDGEHAMMER so special is still right there in the P800 GT2, and it’s still right there in this 997."
Switzer’s P800 997 package apes their GT2 package’s use of custom GT30 turbochargers with custom billet compressor wheels on ball-bearing center sections in lightweight stainless housings, the heat generated by the turbocharged six is still dissipated by Switzer’s own MONSTER intercoolers, and Switzer’s own DME calibrations still keep everything copacetic. Unlike the GT2, however, the 997TT-based P800 does not require a new intake manifold or upgraded throttle-body. Switzer explains, "Porsche developed a model-specific intake manifold for the GT2, which worked perfectly with the stock VTGs, but didn’t flow enough for the GT30Rs. The 997TT just doesn’t have that problem, which is great because it’s easier to install, and saves the customer some money, too."
Switzer’s 800 hp P800 package for the 997TT includes Switzer’s competition-style exhaust and headers, an upgraded carbon clutch package, electronic boost control, and the previously mentioned GT30R turbos, MONSTER intercoolers, and ECU software. This package is available now through Switzer Performance dealers. Contact Switzer dealers for more.
Отличный выбор для семьи или малого бизнеса – пикап Renault Kangoo в пассажирской или грузо-пассажирской конфигурации. Это не пустые слова из моих уст – я сам около года ездил на клоне этого автомобиля Citroen Berlingo (фактически это одинаковые автомобили), и о нем у меня остались только положительные впечатления.
