Our latest build takes the already thrilling GT2 RS and transforms it into a true powerhouse, blending cutting-edge performance upgrades with unmatched craftsmanship and design. This is a build that doesn’t just chase speed; it redefines it.
From the engine bay to the aerodynamics, no part of this 991 GT2 RS has been left untouched. Let’s dive into the full list of mods that make this car a true work of automotive art.
Engine and Performance: Relentless Power
At the heart of this 991 GT2 RS is a performance-focused engine that has been tuned to perfection. No compromises were made here. This isn’t just a fast car—it’s a powerhouse built for sustained, unrelenting performance.
-
IPD Carbon Y Pipe and Plenum: The IPD Carbon Y Pipe and plenum upgrade provide significantly improved airflow, increasing throttle response and overall engine efficiency. The carbon fiber construction not only reduces weight but also enhances the aesthetic appeal under the hood.
-
CSF X PWR Intercoolers: To handle the increased power, the CSF X PWR intercoolers provide superior cooling, maintaining optimal intake temperatures even under heavy load and high-speed driving conditions. This helps ensure the engine stays in top form during long runs or track sessions.
-
BBI Titanium Exhaust: The BBI titanium exhaust is one of the standout features of this build. Not only does it save weight, but it also improves exhaust flow, allowing the turbocharged engine to breathe easier and produce a spine-tingling soundtrack. The titanium construction offers unparalleled durability and thermal efficiency.
-
Tuned by Emre (@tuningbae): To tie it all together, the car has been finely tuned by Emre (@tuningbae), one of the best in the business. His expertise ensures that the engine performs at peak efficiency, with smooth power delivery and reliability at all levels.
Aerodynamics: Aggression Meets Precision
Aerodynamics are key to ensuring this GT2 RS isn’t just fast in a straight line, but also corner-hungry and poised at high speeds. That’s why we've outfitted this car with some of the finest custom aero pieces available.
-
True Performance Custom 2RSCS Wing: The True Performance custom 2RSCS wing is a masterpiece of engineering, designed to provide incredible downforce while maintaining an aggressive, track-ready look. This wing ensures that the car stays glued to the road even at top speeds.
