Harvs11 Posted 31January, 2013 Report Share Posted 31January, 2013 I don't see 960 on the banner. Deep breath KK, you got another job coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlatSix Posted 1February, 2013 Report Share Posted 1February, 2013 Vas! Your back! Awesome! Now that I got that out of the way......I think the flat 8 idea has been killed already . "power for the 960 is touted to come from a high-powered twin-turbo flat six, with earlier V8 plans reportedly ruled out on the grounds of cost cutting."

Vas Posted 1February, 2013 Author Report Share Posted 1February, 2013 Vas! Your back! Awesome! Now that I got that out of the way......I think the flat 8 idea has been killed already . "power for the 960 is touted to come from a high-powered twin-turbo flat six, with earlier V8 plans reportedly ruled out on the grounds of cost cutting." Thanks, mate. Not sure they think the flat six will do the job. "Porsche had originally been planning to equip the 960 with a lightweight twin-turbo boxer six, but that engine was ultimately ruled out as inadequate for the lofty segment (between the iconic 911 and the ultra-exclusive 918) in which the supercar will compete. The replacement eight-cylinder was reportedly approved by none other than VW Group chief Ferdinand Piech, who has been spotted driving several one-off Porsche models equipped with boxer eights in years past."
