If so, how is it?
Just curious as I was browsing their website. Don't think I've ever seen any up for sale, which either means they're keepers as they're fab, they haven't made many, or both.
bit of both, modding is a small market so if you go to those levels it's normally a keeper.Just curious as I was browsing their website. Don't think I've ever seen any up for sale, which either means they're keepers as they're fab, they haven't made many, or both.

Links to the "GT3" version?
be a Manthy upgrade people are talking about for that I would guess.Manthey Racing Porsche 911 GT3 Engine Kit K400.
Manthey Racing engine power kits encompass the whole experience of thousands of racing miles with the Porsche 911 GT3 model range.
An increase of approximately 35bhp and 35 Nm, and a weight saving of 6.7 kg in the rear of a Porsche 911 results from extensive testing to ensure not only increased performance but also reliability and longevity. This kit was developed and tuned using one of the most modern test facilities in Germany. Improved acceleration and torque come at no cost to top speed, so there is no higher thermal load acting on the engine block. The kit includes a complete sports stainless steel exhaust system, sports air filter cup and the MM-Motronic.

Hi Mario,Just curious as I was browsing their website. Don't think I've ever seen any up for sale, which either means they're keepers as they're fab, they haven't made many, or both.
I own the CSR retro. Links etc below. They're fab, really very special. It is a bespoke product and I think in terms of driving pleasure, amazing value for money. I also love the way it looks and I think the skill of RPM is in translating what I wanted from a car into what I have ended up with (in terms of driving dynamics).
The 310-320 odd horsepower in the CSR is a real sweet spot for me, especially for road trips, fast road driving and some occasional track work. I used it as my daily for a year after buying it, around 10k in and around London.
Anyway, I could go on all day. If you have any specific questions please fire away or if would like to have a chat, please feel free to drop me a PM

True, but I doubt it sounds or revs like the real thing. And if you feel so inclined, another 40hp is easily had from the Mk1, and it makes the engine as free revving as it should have really been originally.
I am aware of that, and working with DynoMike of 911UK on an M96 to see whether we can make something interesting.Mario149 said:
