The new TechArt GTstreet is based on the 911 Turbo (997) and starts at €245,000 (£166,700).
The 3.6-litre twin-turbo boxer engine is modified to develop 630bhp at 6,800 rpm, up from the standard 480bhp. Peak torque increases to 602lb-ft at 4,500 rpm.
The TechArt TA 097/T3 engine conversion comprises two special VTG turbochargers, a new air box with sport air filter, high-performance manifolds, intercoolers and a stainless-steel sport exhaust system with high-performance catalysts. The interaction of all modifications is ensured by a newly programmed engine management system.
Power is transferred to all four wheels via a modified transmission with a short-shifting TechArt gearstick.
The TechArt GTstreet delivers performance 0-62mph in 3.2 seconds, 200 km/h in 10.9 seconds and a top speed of 215mph.
The body kit for the TechArt GTstreet was created in the wind tunnel for optimised downforce and minimal drag. The front fascia and large intakes of the GTstreet with retractable carbon-fiber splitter produce downforce on the front axle and provide radiator, oil coolers and brakes with more cooling air. The auxiliary headlamp units with daytime running lights and fog lamps improve active safety. They also give the car even more passing clout.
The flares on the front arches add 10 mm to the width, while air outlets behind the front wheel arches optimise brake venting with larger air ducts in the rear sidewalls providing engine and intercoolers with a larger supply of cooling air. For an optimal transition between front and rear, there are rocker panels along with ne mirrors and headlamp mouldings.
The roof spoiler extends the roofline and optimises airflow to the adjustable rear airfoil while an integrated carbon-fibre diffuser contributes to downforce on the rear axle.
You can choose one of several designs from the company's selection of 20-inch wheels and colour combinations. TechArt fitted ContiSportContact 3 tyres in sizes 245/30 ZR 20 (front) and 325/25 ZR 20 (rear) to this example. The bigger wheels provide space for the new brakes -- six-piston aluminium calipers and 390mm discs (front) and 365mm discs and four-piston calipers (rear).
TechArt's VarioPlus coil-over suspension is based on the electronically adjustable PASM damping system of the 911 Turbo. This chassis allows individual ride-height lowering by up to 25mm with push-button selection of two different damper settings, Normal or Sport. However, the dampers are not limited to these presets. Sporty driving automatically results in firmer damper settings in both modes, thus combining excellent ride comfort during normal driving with agile and responsive handling during fast cornering.
The cockpit of the GTstreet also differs distinctly from the standard 911 Turbo. Among the differences is an exclusive leather interior with colour-contrasted stitching and CarboBlack highlights. The coupé gets a TechArt sport steering wheel, aluminium foot pedals, foot rest and gearstick, plus illuminated door sills sporting the TechArt logo.
