1986 Porsche 911
Car: 1986 Porsche 911
Exterior Paint: Meteor Grey Metallic
Interior Color: Burgundy
Engine: Turbocharged 3.3L
Horsepower: 340 at crank
Condition: Restored
This goal for this client was to create quite the sleeper. Inside this non-turbo 1986 body sits a 3-liter turbocharged motor making around 340 Horsepower. We have installed a low-profile wing that will deploy when the car hits boost. This 911 is finished in a meteor grey metallic with a burgundy interior. Other modifications include custom speaker covers and lightweight engine-lid hinges to account for the Carrera 2 spoiler.
The car arrived at our shop as a typical 1986 911, but we had big plans to increase power while retaining the non-turbo look.
