Three years ago, a member of the Boyko Racing racing team returned from a business trip to the Urals with burning eyes: “I want to!” In the garage of a local enthusiast, a Porsche-911 Turbo with a classic 1990 body was discovered, in addition, prepared by the German company Freisinger Motorsport.
The office did a good job - if the serial 3.6-liter air-cooled engine produced 360 “horses”, then after tuning the output increased to 550 hp. The compressor blew so that at 4, 500 rpm the tachometer needle crossed the horizon at 7200 rpm with a flash. Moreover, all the power went, of course, only on the rear axle, as a result of which the car polished asphalt in third gear!
Delivery to Moscow decided to do the previous owner of the Porsche. Farewell "annealing" before loading onto a transporter, saturated with the bitterness of parting, was so emotional that it led to the death of two pistons. The new owner had the courage not to terminate the deal, the car was resuscitated by an official Ural dealer, and as a result, the 911th reached the capital.
The salon was saved from the pretentious heritage of the previous owner and was tailored again for racing patterns

However, the happiness of ownership was short-lived: it turned out that during the repair the chain tensioner was installed on the wrong side, and Herr Kaput again visited the engine. They did not have time to revive, as the engine without a speed limiter once again announced the surrender. Old sores also made themselves felt, and in the end the owner decided to take the car seriously.
In a tuning studio Vintage Auto, the engine was dismantled and sent to the German office of Pietz, where the engine was promised to unburden up to 700 forces using another turbocharger. At the same time, we considered options for a new brake system - the choice fell on ceramic disks from the new Porsche models. The front mounted 380 mm with six-piston "cars", the rear - 360 mm with four-piston calipers.

The next step was the maximum relief of the body. The first thing they threw a huge subwoofer. He weighed so much that only two mechanics could pull him out. Further cleaning of the insides revealed many foci of dampness and mold, which were mercilessly destroyed. Having finished work on the salon, all efforts were thrown into carbonization. Now the roof, rear wing, all elements of the body kit, as well as the instrument and door panels are made of carbon fiber.
Motor from Germany returned two months late. Mounted, allowed - heroic power did not give out. The invited specialist from the Pietz studio conjured for two hours - one of the snails of the turbocharger did not blow out the design pressure.
In the pursuit of excellence, Porsche was sent to their historical homeland to fine-tune all components and assemblies. When the engine was finally finished, the stand confirmed the promised 700 hp. and 1000 N • m.
With monstrous 700 hp and 1000 N • m is easier to drive sideways than in a straight line

Today, the tuning Porsche-911 Turbo is listed as a combat unit of the Boyko Racing professional racing team and has good prospects in circuit racing. In the offseason, they will continue to work on the car - perhaps they will make it all-wheel drive …
But now you can be glad that in the competition for the best lap time there was another bright car in the most powerful class Unlimited.
Max Power Cars on the Nizhny Novgorod Ring
After tests at the Moscow Circuit in Myachkovo, the Boyko Racing team decided to put up the White Beast at the seventh stage of the Best Power Lap Cup in Max Power Cars in Nizhny Novgorod.
On the road
All night before leaving, experts at Vintage Auto tuning studio brought the car to maximum alert.
In training, one of the front tires wore out, so the rear wide rollers of the Toyo R888 were thrown forward, and Michelin slicks were put in exchange.
