The new Porsche 911 Turbo is known throughout the market as one of the fastest production cars in the market but SpeedART, the German tuner, didn’t think that it was enough. SpeedART chose to enhance the BTR II 580.

Because of the reprogrammed ECU and a new sport exhaust system that comes with a sound control switch, SpeedART was able to add 80 hp more and achieve 120 Nm of torque from the 3.8-liter turbocharged flat-six boosting output to 580 hp. These enabled the car to go from 0-100 km/h (62 mph) sprint time in 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 325 km/h or 202 mph for the PDK double-clutch model. Continued after the jump!
