Porsche 991 GT3 Cup MR Technical Information
Summary
The Porsche 911 GT3 Cup presents itself with a modified aerodynamics package with more overall downforce. Together with the twelve-way adjustable ABS system and the wider wheelbase, this results in a car that is more suitable for long journeys and improved braking performance.
Visually, the vehicle is characterised above all by air vents on the wings and in the bonnet and xenon headlights with programmable LED spots. A large number of elements such as the front bumper, bonnet, wings, side skirts or engine cover and rear wing are also made from the extremely lightweight carbon fibre material carbon. These changes make the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup ideal for long-distance racing. Equipped with a 4-litre six-cylinder boxer engine and state-of-the-art racing technology, the vehicle has an output of 485 hp. Manthey-Racing offers optional long-distance-specific accessories such as the Endurance wiring harness or air conditioning.

A combination of optimised air intake and ECU optimisation not only improves performance, but also the efficiency and responsiveness of the engine.
Features:
Increased engine power
Optimised air intake
ECU optimisation - The anti-lift system is an extension of the traction control to stabilise the front end in accordance with the regulations for SP-9, SP-PRO & SP-X. It reduces the so-called ‘lifting’ of the front of the vehicle when accelerating and thus ensures improved traction and stability. Thanks to the optimised geometry, the vehicle balance is maintained, resulting in better cornering stability and overall higher performance.
Features:
Reduction of the lift force
