The Porsche 911 Turbo is one of the most capable supercars on the planet, and its design has been honed by the ages to be a super slippery modern interpretation of the Porsche’s essence. All that goes right out the window with Gemballa’s latest upgrade for the 911 Turbo, the Avalanche GTR 800 EVO-R.
Let’s start with the new styling. Gemballa installs a new lower fascia that’s pretty much one giant air intake divided into three parts. Likewise, a vented hood is added that will take some of that incoming oxygen and direct it up and over the car for more downforce and stability. The 911 Turbo also gets GT headlights and a super trick dual-wing rear spoiler. Gemballa gave the 911T new 19-inch alloy wheels out back fitted with Yokohama AVS Sport tires. Their sheer girth required the bodywork be widened, so new rear fenders bulge out to accommodate the steam rollers and incorporate a larger air intake ahead of the wheels. The rear apron has also been modified to allow four exhaust tips to exit on either side of the license plate.
The look is menacing, and Gemballa gives the Avalanche GTR 800 EVO-R the muscle to back up its menace. The engine has been enlarged to 3.8L and fitted with a pair of Garret T035 turbos in place of the stock blowdryers. Along with GT3-R heads, a machined crank and new connecting rods, the car now makes 850 HP and 690 ft-lbs of torque. Handling upgrades also include H&R coilovers with adjustable springs and three-position anti-roll bars.
The Gemballa Avalanche GTR 800 EVO-R does not appear to be for the faint of heart, but Gemballas never are.
wheres that little monkey wankin, mods post that up here for me like 45 times.
Which are from a C-GT I might add. Gemballa…the pinnacle of aftermarket Porsche performance mixed with flamboyance…Gemballa’s always taking things to the 8th level. Still take a Ruf over that anyday, CTR2 Sport would be my pick.
Definitely a sick car. The body work on it is sexyyyyyyyyy…but am I the only one that has trouble looking at that wing! I think just the bottom part would look fine. The double decker is overkill IMO. You can make a wing functional and look better than that.
It all has to do with the aerodynamics of the 911. If the wing could have been made better in that configuration, Gemballa surely would have. They’ve got more finacial backing in the research and development aspects than nearly all other Porsche tuners combined, Ruf excluded. That wing functions not only as a wing for downforce, but as an intercooler air duct, engine compartment hot air extractor, and intake duct all at the same time. 9FF and Ruf also dump STUPID money into wind tunnel testing of their components, as shown with 9FF’s 800+WHP 996 turbo that they made aerodynamics for and broke the 250mph mark with it, and RUF blistering 996 R Turbo stage 4.
Oh so many reasons why I am, and will always be, a “Porschephanatic” ;D
