Background:
Few of Porsches modern era creations are shrouded in more mystery than those that emerged from Porsche's "PORSCHE EXCLUSIV" department beginning in the mid-1980s. While there had always been "back-door" channels to arrange for special features and options, usually known as the "Sonderwunschprogramm", not until the mid 1980s did Porsche organize a more formal department and separate, "stand-alone" production area to deal exclusively with special orders and special requests. These could be something a simple as a request for a non-standard color or interior trim, to far more unique features and options that today can be difficult to fully understand and comprehend. One of the more famous of the "PORSCHE EXCLUSIV" option packages was the M505 and M506 "Flachbau" or "Slope Nose" front end treatment. But as we will soon see, there were other even more rare and interesting programs those in the know could order if they new who to ask, how to ask for it and of course a willingness to pay what Porsche demanded for such personalized attention.

Turbo 3.3, 330bhp:
As early as 1981, for European clients, Porsche began providing directly a special optional engine upgrade that boosted output of the standard 3.3-liter engine from 300bhp to 330bhp. This involved the fitting of a special intercooler, turbocharger and wastegate system as well as revised engine timing, camshaft timing and fuel-injection upgrades. Only a handful of such Factory modified Turbos are known to exist but requests and interest grew sufficiently that sometime in 1985, an actual full option package under M-Code's "09981 & 09991" was created. 1989 was the last year of the legendary 3.3-liter Porsche Turbo based on the original 1975 design. It was also the first and only year the model finally did away with the antiquated four-speed for the incredible "G50", five-speed gearbox. The full "S" performance and appearance package was quietly made available to select clientele. This was also the very first year that Porsche provided publicly a production list of those vehicles that were fitted with this special "S" production package. Porsche's internal records document that at total of 1,675 Turbos were completed in 1989. Of these completed examples, Porsche confirms that just 55 left-hand-drive Turbo S Coupes left the Factory making it one of the rarest of the rare to emerge form "PORSCHE EXCLUSIV." The 1989 Turbo S package consisted of the following components:

-Type 930/66S Engine, Flat-6, Turbocharged 3.3-liter, 330BHP
-Special Front Mounted Oil-Cooler
-Combination of a 6,800 RPM rev limit on a 7,000RPM Tach with a 300KPH Speedometer and 1 BAR boost Gauge
-Special Front Air Dam Spoiler with Integral Oil Cooler Inlet and Integral Fog Lights
-Special Rear Lower Valence with Integral Quad-Exhaust Outlet Ports
-Quad Tip, Free-Flowng Exhaust System
-Sport Seats Left and Right
-Unique Front Console and Control Arrangement
-G50/50 1 Five-Speed Gearbox with Limited Slip Differential
-Fuch Light-Alloy Rims
-Bridgestone Z-Rated Speed Tires

Examination of an original Turbo S from 1989 reveals a variety of easily seen unique differences. From the front end the vehicle features a radically different and aggressive front air dam with integral oil-cooler inlet and fog-light assemblies. Behind this is a massive oil-cooler with large supply and return lines that are hand-routed through the front luggage compartment and right-inner fender-well area. These pass along the right-side body work to a special oil-thermostat and dry-sump oil tank. The rear of the Turbo S likewise has a completely unique appearance with a special rear valence assembly with dual large cut-outs on each side prominently showing the unique dual-tip, free-flowing, non-catalyst exhaust system. The gearbox and engine combination were the most developed ever seen on a production road Porsche to date. The gearbox was the all new five-speed G50/50-1 with limited slip differential. The engine incorporated a special, massive intercooler, larger turbocharger and accompanying wastegate system and free-flowing, quad-tip, non-catalyst exhaust system as well as revised engine ignition timing, camshaft profile and subsequent fuel-injection revisions. Visually with close examination, the top of the engine block near the engine number itself, Porsche stamped these special motors with a distinct "S" after the "930/66" engine "Typ." number.

The performance increase from these upgrades was significant, with raw bhp rising from 300 at 5,500rpm to 330 at 5,750rpm. Engine torque also rose dramatically, going from 430nm at 4,000rpm to a "stump-puling" 467nm at 4,500rpm! With no increase in vehicle weight, both acceleration and top speed were significantly increased. Top speed of the standard 1989 Turbo was 260kph / 162mph. The "S" upgrade increased top speed to 270kph / 168mp...for more information please contact the seller.
