2008 SharkWerks Porsche 997 GT3 RS
Joe loves his Porsches, that’s why when the opportunity to purchase a 2008 SharkWerks Porsche 997 GT3 RTS became available, he jumped on it!
See the difference between a regular GT3 and a SharkWerks version is the supercharged engine. Not many people know the difference between supercharger and naturally aspirated, but essentially it’s as if you’re forcing oxygen into an engine instead of it naturally ‘breathing’ it in. The result is an extra 100 HP on top of a 4.1L Stroker Motor that already possesses 540 HP.
The engine is cammed to receive 8700 RPM, so in turn, you’re getting more torque down low and in the mid range of the car’s breadth. There’s nothing wrong with the original GT3, it’s an outstanding car, and Porsche definitely has the capability to modify it like these guys are doing. However when you’re producing thousands of the same car, the cost adds up- that’s why Joe likes to add his custom additions.
Do you have a craving for some American muscle after all that Porsche talk? This next car Joe added to his classic car collection might satiate you..
