EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT THE TURBO STUDY

A legend. Reimagined. You know what that whale tail spoiler represents, what you’re looking at here, but let’s savour these words. This, ladies and gentleman, is the Turbo Study, Singer’s latest celebration of the Porsche 911.

Harking back to the original Porsche 911 Turbo of 1975, it’s based, like all of Singer’s restorations, on the chassis from a later 964 car. It uses the same 3.8-litre air-cooled Mezger flat-six, but adds on a pair of the BorgWarner turbos from the latest 992-generation 911, plus electric wastegates and air-to-water cooling. Power? Upwards of 450bhp, with over 400lb ft of torque.
