Plain old 911 Turbo S too tame? Try one with a little less weight - and a lot more power...
Tuning 911 Turbos is nothing new; even Ruf’s infamous ‘Faszination on the Nurburgring’ video is now almost 35 years old. We’ve seen cars that were once 911 Turbos touting four-figure power outputs for a while. To stand out tuning a Turbo in 2023, something different needs to be done - so that’s exactly what Techart has attempted with this, the GTstreet R Flyweight.
Anyway, to the Flyweight modifications. Techart says it’s removed 60kg from a Turbo S, which would take it below 1,600kg and not far off all-wheel drive hot hatch kerbweight. With more than twice the power. That’s been achieved through changes including the fitment of outrageous Recaro Podium seats, weighing just 4.9kg per shell and trimmed with Oechsler 3D-printed pads that are said to be lighter, better damped and better ventilated than normal.
The new wheels are Techart’s Formula VI Race Flyweight; as notable as being silver on a modified car , they’re even lighter than the old Formula VI Race, saving a couple of kilos per axle. Amazingly, a front 20-inch wheel is less than 10 kilos , and even the mammoth 21s behind come in at 11.2kg each. The wheels are shod in Michelin Cup 2R tyres, and behind them sit compression and rebound adjustable Ohlins dampers, in case the Flyweight’s intent wasn’t clear enough already. Another 2.
