Ooft. Porsche rebigulator Gunther Werks<\/a> has revealed the \u201cfinal rendition\u201d of its Speedster<\/a> programme, and it is an industrial defibrillator masquerading as an exceedingly modified Porsche 993. Ready thine feeble hearts for \u2018Project Endgame\u2019.<\/p>\n

And not unlike its Marvel Comics-esque name, Project Endgame gets a heroic amount of power. Unsurprisingly to those of you who\u2019ve read the headline, there\u2019s a colossal 840bhp of oomph generated by a modified, air-cooled 4.0-litre twin-turbo flat-six directed solely at the rear wheels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Sorry, that should read very<\/em> modified. It\u2019s been built by Rothsport Racing to motorsport spec, boasting 660lb ft and a 7,500rpm redline. There\u2019s a flat fan as a hat-tip to Porsche motorsport, said to provide \u201ceven cooling\u201d to all six pots. Individual throttle bodies \u2013 peak performance stuff, that \u2013 are present, as are air-to-water intercoolers plated in 24-karat gold.<\/p>\n

That oomph is directed at said wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox with \u201cbespoke ratios that deliver smooth, potent power\u201d, apparently. The entire drivetrain is of course then packaged up inside a rebodied 993 clothed in carbon and pinched directly from the Gunther Werks Turbo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Here, Gunther Werks enthusiasts will spot new rear quarter panels because there\u2019s a fatter engine to deal with, a \u2018True Candy\u2019 red paintjob, more gold detailing, leather and Alcantara trim inside, and the mother of all rear wings. GW reckons on a weight of just 1,179kg (2,600lbs). That\u2019s\u2026 that\u2019s basically a running shoe.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the client’s behest, Endgame will be the only Speedster powered by an air-cooled turbocharged engine, undoubtedly making it our fastest Speedster to date,\u201d said GW boss Peter Nam. Ooft.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
