Porsche TechArt
What car would buy a millionaire, if he wanted to show himself? Many of you would certainly answer the word Ferrari, Lamborghini or Porsche. These cars have always been symbols of thick wallets. They are literally cram-full of most modern technologies, stylish design and have outstanding performance. These are super-sport cars assigned to amuse their owners and persuade him that his investment wasn’t useless. Mister Ferdinand Porsche knew very well what he was doing, when establishing this car make. Not many tuning companies can tune Porsche vehicles in such a measure as the German company TechArt can. Even to increase volume of stock engine. In combination with other tuning elements, this Porsche Cayman S becomes an undaunted four-wheel fellow. Porsche offers only a single engine; however, it comes up to all expectations. It is six-cylinder 3.3 liters gas engine with maximum of 295 horse powers (217 kW) performance. With torque 340 Nm. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h can be managed by this swell in 5.4 seconds, the maximum speed is somewhere around 275 km/h. Many firms dare to adjust Porsche engines, but not many of them venture to increase the volume. But when the German tuner TechArt starts to concern with this, he has to know very well what he’s doing. The stakes are high, at least when the good reputation of this company from Stuttgart is concerned. It is necessary to say that tuners from TechArt did know what to do and the result of their effort is impaired yet untasted Porsche Cayman marked GTsport.
Tuners got down to exterior rebuilding and they started with the front part. A new TechArt front bumper with two pairs of headlights was stocked. It is designed in a way that it doesn’t increase the weight of front part (thanks to the carbon material). This is important at high speed. Thanks to this modification, the engine performance increased by 30 per cent, which means grow to final 385 hp (283kW) and the torque stabilized at markedly higher level of 407 Nm by 4600 rpm. This change of course affected the speed and acceleration. Car accelerates from stop to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds and maximum speed is 285 km/h. Comfortable drive is secured also
by TechArt sporting chassis which moved the car by 25 mm to the ground.
