    Around the race track it is not. 415 (not 413 HP) vs 480 HP, but then it is also 3200 lbs (GT3) vs 3700 lbs (turbo). The exceptionally light weight makes the GT3 is a race track beast.

    no it’s due to the 480 boost hp vs 413 Na hp..
    simple as that,

    Yes, in professional hands the GT3 lapped faster than the turbo around a race track, but for amateur drivers, the turbo might be easier to reach the limits due to AWD.

    The GT3 and the turbo have the same engine,one N\A the other turbocharged. It is an evolution of the Porsche GT1 le mans car, it’s got dry sump, block and heads made in three pieces,Titanium valves and conrods, a special nitrured crankshaft, and so on.The turbo has a lower compression ratio than the gt3, but the engine is the same.
    The standard Carrera engine is very very different.

    In the hands of a very very good driver, yes.
    For 99% of amateur track day racers the turbo is faster, because it’s easier to take to the limit, where the gt3 is much more difficult to drive fast.

    GT3 RS owns the 997 turbo around a race track.

    try doing that to a nissan gtr

    Wow - nice comparison. I was surprised that the turbo butchered the GT3RS with what seemed to be almost no effort. Excellent clip. Would be interesting to see how they match up in ‘real’ race conditions - the RS3 should be able to regain something in a nice curvy setup :-)

    No you have not since I uploaded this a week ago. Unique material.

  11. MatthiasWuttke93 - October 20th, 2007 at 2:15 am

    but i have seen it bevore from another provider

  12. rockysi22 - October 22nd, 2007 at 2:51 pm

    No they are both fundamentally different engines. Even the displacements are different.. Why that is.. is something you’ll have to figure out on your own.

  13. m5boarddotcom - October 25th, 2007 at 10:36 pm

    No it is not, it is a GTBoard exclusive video.

  14. MatthiasWuttke93 - October 28th, 2007 at 12:20 am

  15. mattyoz0 - October 30th, 2007 at 3:52 am

    I love all Porsche’s, but if i had to choose one it would be the GT3.

  17. premiumlander - November 4th, 2007 at 2:59 am

  18. streetracerm5 - November 6th, 2007 at 9:56 pm

    I wanna know too!

  19. ijaywu - November 9th, 2007 at 5:17 pm

    Which camcorder did you shoot with? The picture looks nice…

  20. novan3 - November 11th, 2007 at 2:36 am

    No silly! The RS has a tuned version of a Carrera engine; the turbo has a twin-turbo setup of it.

  21. novan3 - November 11th, 2007 at 10:37 pm

    What!?…Is that RS sponsored by Hugo Boss

  22. mattyoz0 - November 12th, 2007 at 6:54 am

    Less power!

  23. KopaszJack - November 14th, 2007 at 9:38 am

    it has less horse power

  24. brocky - November 15th, 2007 at 2:41 am

    The GT3RS is a lightened version of the 911 GT3. The GT3 is the track version of the 911 Carrera which is naturally aspirated. The turbo is it’s own thing. The lightened version of the turbo is the GT2.
