With an increase of 373bhp over the standard 997 Turbo and a headline torque figure of 642lb ft, the twin-turbo T80 is claimed to hit 62mph (100kmh) in three seconds, and 186mph (300kmh) in just 18.9 seconds, before going on to a Veyron-bothering 236mph top speed.<\/p>\n<p>This stunning performance is achieved through an extensive set of modifications to every aspect of the engine and drivetrain, including titanium connecting rods, forged alloy pistons and a dry sump lubrication system. There is also a hand-crafted exhaust system, twin throttle bodies and specially made hybrid turbochargers, and several electronic management systems able to control a vast number of parameters as well as the engine itself.<\/p>\n<p>The shock absorbers and ride height are adjustable, and an unspecified &#8216;active suspension&#8217; system should make some headway toward keeping that much power on the road. Should you wish to take the car off the road and onto a track (possibly a wise decision), Sportec can also equip customers with a custom-made motorsports exhaust, which should ensure a small additional power increase. The specially designed high-performance clutch should be able to withstand track abuse, as should the all-round cross-drilled and ventilated ceramic disks.<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pistonheads.com\/pics\/news\/20214\/SPR1T8002-L.jpg\" target=\"_popup\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Click to enlarge\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pistonheads.com\/pics\/news\/20214\/SPR1T8002-t.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>The body gets some carbon\/kevlar composite panels to help get the weight down, and aerodynamics are given a helping hand with a flat carbonfibre underfloor and an adjustable rear spoiler. There are also some more subtle bulges and furrows to optimise airflow into the engine and intercooler.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the hardcore track appeal of T80, it is being offered with more-or-less the full suite of 997 accessories, including sat-nav, air conditioning and a multifunction steering wheel. It even meets tough Euro IV emissions standards, though fuel economy figures are not mentioned in the press release and are probably quite amusing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SPORTEC SPR1 T80 &#8211; THE 860BHP PORSCHE Insane Swiss supercar is anything but neutral For those who think a GT2 isn&#8217;t mad enough&#8230; Swiss tuning house Sportec has come up with a modified Porsche 997 Turbo packing a truly bonkers 858bhp.
