As per title. Wondering if anyone heard whether it will be N/A or turbo charged yet?

I'm sure that somewhere I read that the GT cars will not be turbo. Is the GTS a true GT car??

You are still deep into supposition there though. There is still a reasonable chance that the next GT3 will actually be a GT2... :?:

As for the GTS though - no reason to expect it to be anything other than a powerkitted S to my mind. It won't have the engine from the GT3/RS due to the associated cost issue and I can't imagine them continuing with an unblown 9A1 that would likely leave it slower than the S...
 
I've had it on good authority that it will be turbo as per Carrera. 👍

991.1 GTS the last N/A GTS👌
 
So, internet figures aside...

Is a 991.2S at 420hp faster than a GTS with 430hp?

It'd guess there isn't much in it....... but the torque from the turbos will make a difference for everyday drving?
 
Logic would suggest that a new GTS would need to be turbo as per the 991.2 just to deliver the performance upgrade over the Carrera S. If they tried doing this using the current n/a GT3 engine they would be cannibalising their GT car market.
Personally I can't see the GTS being anything other than a slightly tweaked Carrera S just as it was in the 991.1
