Porsche’s famed 911 Turbo Type 930 set a new benchmark when it was introduced for the 1976 model year, and it served as the homologation basis for the company’s fearsome 934 racer. The Type 930’s three-liter flat-six boasted a single KKK turbocharger with K-Jetronic fuel injection which produced an awe-inspiring 260 brake horsepower and 253 pound-feet of torque. Instantly recognizable by its huge fender flares and new tea-tray rear spoiler, the new Turbo became Porsche’s image leader—its quickest, fastest, and most costly production car. The name became synonymous with high performance, albeit performance that demanded the talents of an experienced driver.
