Suspected cause

That gearbox, is a typical race car sound, almost a straight cut gear sound, I suspect the ratio's have been married up to the road it was being tested on, as would any car developed for a particular race circuit.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

What a fabulous upgrade on the stock car sounds magnificent too

POST 2Original post

Watched this last night..... sounded fabulous...and that gearbox.......!!!! Love the stance too.... just seems like a perfect car. Not sure i'd be sitting that close to the wheel though.

POST 3Original post

It does sound great, I think I was more impressed by the gearshifts though! They sound so precise, I wonder what they changed. Sounds like more that just fitting a Numeric (or similar) shifter. On their website they say it's a 'W96 KGT' - not sure what that is

POST 5Original post

I didn't find their website that informative really.... would love to have an idea on cost to convert .

POST 6Original post

It’s a 4.1L and they don’t specify who did it.

POST 7Original post

I got the impression it was in-house development.

POST 8Original post

Did he also say in the video that the engine is being enlarged again, to 4.4?

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 2714773

It’s going to be a 4.3 next up which just sounds fabulous. It would be interesting to know how much is done in house and what’s off the shelf. For example that exhaust sounds amazing

POST 10Original post

And after the video footage, the engine is going to be "torn down" and rebuilt to a normal aspirated 4.3 litre, with 450 BHP. It does ask the question, how much bigger can the engine be made without compromsing the reliability. I suspect turbo's put a lot of strain on the engine, and therefore they have not gone down that road. If you listen to the cars, they have a slow up change in sound, it for me is a very pleasing sound, its a characteristic that straight away, you dont have to see what car it is, you know what car it is by that glorious sound track. That gearbox, is a typical race car sound, almost a straight cut gear sound, I suspect the ratio's have been married up to the road it was being tested on, as would any car developed for a particular race circuit. I have watched it twice now and it gives me good feeling that buying a Porsche was a good choice.

POST 11Original post

I understood the engine was rebuilt in house as well, and will be taken out to a 4.3. I'd like to learn more about the suspension, but what a machine - and such a lovely side profile!

POST 13Original post

a bit superficial, but love the gear stick and kn*b.

POST 14Original post

I would've expected a shorter throw on the gearstick, or a sequential box...... scratch that, just watched it again and it is pretty short.

POST 15Original post

I have reached out to the company asking for more info about the engine, exhaust and gearshift upgrades. I will share anything I get back from them
