BUMP For The New 911 Turbo!

They have refined it to the point that there is no lag at all. The Car behaves like a Big N/A monster with a near linear torque curve.

Vw has had that on their Tdi's for awhile now. They get stuck all the time and give the car very low boost.
 
Moremoving parts on an already complicated piece of equipment... Hopefully one day they'll master the technology and all turbos will be variable

I guess you didn't really read up on it.

Porsche is now offering this diferent design of variable that has eliminated the reliability issue associated with the OLD DESIGN.

This is a production turbo.
 
Hmmm interesting, so it is more reliable than the old variable vanes, but HOW much more?
