Porsche VTG: Next World Premiere

The very concept of turbocharger technology is linked inseparably with the name Porsche and the Porsche brand. It was back in October 1974 that the German sports car manufacturer from Stuttgart launched the world's first series production sports car with an exhaust gas turbocharger. And ever since, every new generation of the Porsche 911 Turbo has fascinated enthusiasts the world over with a special highlight in technology: the intercooler, bi-turbo, VarioCam Plus, as well as the title "Cleanest Car in the World" have all set the benchmark in turbocharger development. Now the highlight of the next generation of the Porsche Turbo is spelt out clearly in three powerful letters: VTG.

Re: Porsche VTG: Next World Premiere

Very very interesting technology and impressive progress by Borg Warner (they're so hot right now with their forced induction technology!)

So, now we can expect and even more responsive 911 with less lag and huge top end.
Can't wait.

Porsche pioneers? Don't make me laugh! Porsche = evolution at it's best, they hardly ever 'pioneer'.

Can't wait.
BorgWarner got their knowledge from the former KKK acquisition. The main R&T center for charging systems - and therefore the developement center for the VTG charger - is still the old KKK location in Kirchheimbolanden/Germany

That is a world's first:

"Introducing the new model, Porsche will be presenting the world's first turbocharged gasoline engine with variable turbine geometry (VTG)"
