Car Tuning
A wild car tuning package here from the guys at OK-Chiptuning for the 996 generation Porsche 911 Turbo. This exterior paint scheme was inspired by the 1991 German action comedy Manta, Manta where the protagonist of the movie drove an Opel Manta coupe. The colors you see here were placed over the original paint by using a foil wrap, while the tuners also installed TechArt pink rims with Opel logos. This makes us wonder why even both with the logos when it’s obviously a Porsche 911 Turbo.
With the Porsche 911 history now five decades deep, it’s amazing how the company has kept the styling so similar when comparing a 911 of today. German-based tuner DP Motorsports has celebrated the 40th birthday of the notorious model by transforming a 1990’s Porsche 964 into a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS replica. From new school to old school, both the exterior, interior and engine bay received a wide range of aftermarket parts in the build.
Anibal Automotive Design has released these teaser photos and video for the Porsche 911 seventh generation models also known as the 991. This “Attack” package is said to be in the final development stage and features a very aggressive body kit. It consists of wider front and rear fenders, side skirts, bumpers, air scoops and multiple vents. A carbon fiber hood, new rear engine lid and large rear wing completely transform the exterior styling and make it look race-worthy. Performance upgrades for the Porsche 911 tuning project were not announced, so this appears to strictly be a styling upgrade.
Wimmer RS has released this new Porsche 997 GT2 RS package for the 500 owners who are looking to reach the next level of performance.

Here is an upcoming Porsche 911 Carrera 4/4S tuning package by TopCar set to debut at the Top Marques Monaco.

Additional styling improvements come from the wider fenders, rear spoiler and lighter ADV.1 rims wrapped in high performance tires. Customers looking for further enhancements will have a variety of 9ff tuning upgrades for their Porsche 911 models.
The Porsche tuning experts at Gemballa have released a new package for the Porsche 911 Cabriolet S, also known as the 991. They are calling this the GT package which features a new aero kit along with some performance upgrades for the brakes. Body styling consists of a new front apron with spoiler, larger air vents up front, side skirts, rear bumper and diffuser that makes way for the triple exhaust tips from Gemballa.
If you still fancy the older Porsche 997 models over the new generation 991 like most of us do, then be sure to follow the Champion Motorsports tuning firm. They have used a 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S and transformed it into the popular Porsche 911 GT3 RSR race car. However, this one is street legal! This isn’t just a bunch of bolt-on parts hooked up, they went all out to make this one-of-a-kind sports car truly unique.
Here is the TechArt tuned Porsche 911 that is now available for the public viewing in hall 2 at the Geneva Motor Show.

It consists of a new front spoiler with splitter, new aero wings for the front bumper air inlets, mirror covers, side skirts, rear spoiler and a new diffuser integrated with the bumper. A nice addition is the new quad tip exhaust system with oval styling that also features a valve control for the exhaust tone.
The tuners at SpeedART have teased us with their latest package for the Porsche 911 set to display at the Geneva Motor Show. A new aero kit called the SP91-R which features some styling improvements up front and a CS rear wing out back. Customers will have the option of 20/21-inch LSC forged rims along with a new sport suspension if they’d like. Under the hood, SpeedART offers a new sports exhaust system and a re-programmed ECU to squeeze some extra power from the 3.4-liter boxer powerplant. This tuning provides an additional 25 PS and 20 newton meters of torque to the rear wheels.
The Porsche 911 GT3 has received a minor tuning job from the guys at REIL Performance. They are a subsidiary of MR Car Design and have hooked up the 997 GT3 with a mild package. It starts with an ECU tune for the Akrapovic sport exhaust system installed underneath. This boosts the numbers to 455 horsepower while REIL also added a new suspension with HLS hydraulic lift kit.
Earlier this month at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the 2012 Porsche 911 was debuted among all car enthusiasts. We have already seen several tuning companeis render some projects for the good looking sports car, but those are only the tip of the iceberg.
