From performance upgrades to luxurious touches, our Porsche 911 is what we find to be the perfect balance between all the adventure capabilities while maintaining its reliable daily driving duties.
Our Goal for this Porsche 911 991.1 Turbo
– Enhance driving performance and add character
– Unlock even more of its potential with basic bolt-ons
To pay tribute to the classic Carrera RS, the aim was to incorporate elements of its livery. This involved making the 991.1 platform even more appealing by adding OEM+ upgrades. The exterior was transformed from its original white color to a vibrant green reminiscent of the Carrera RS, creating a visually striking and creatively customized appearance for this 911.
ARMYTRIX Valvetronic Exhaust System
We started off our upgrades with the VR Performance Valvetronic Exhaust System for the Porsche 991.1 Turbo. This exhaust system is designed to provide maximum performance, sound quality, and durability. With its valvetronic technology, you can control the sound of your engine from inside the cabin with a simple switch – giving you complete control over how loud or quiet your ride is at any given time! The exhaust notes from the ARMYTRIX system are monstrous. Not only does this exhaust system look and sound great, but it also increases horsepower and torque while reducing back pressure in order to maximize efficiency in your engine.
Exhaust Benefits
– Increases airflow
– Reduces backpressure in turbo platforms
– Provides horsepower and torque gains
– Improves exhaust sound
VRP High Flow Headers
These new VR Performance tubular headers for the Porsche 991 Turbo or Turbo S really show off the performance you can get out of this engine. The design of the headers are a 3 into 1 style that the twin turbo REALLY benefits from. Unlike the 996 and 997 Turbo, the 991 headers are very restrictive and the clam shell design prohibits the turbos from spooling up quickly.
Headers Benefits
– Increases airflow
– Reduces backpressure
– Increases Horsepower & Torque
– Improves exhaust sound
VR Tuned ECU Flash
To really get the most out of our modifications we decided to get an ECU flash from VR Tuned for this Porsche 991.1 Turbo. This optimizes engine performance, enhancing horsepower and torque while maintaining fuel efficiency. We opted the tune with:
- Vmax Off – This is an increase or reduction of the maximum speed limit.
- Race Exhaust – This option is for those running full race exhaust systems.
- Pops & Bangs (burble tune) – This is the result of an ignition delay which creates an exhaust detonation when the throttle pedal is released.
ECU Flash Benefits
– Eliminates CEL codes caused by headers or high-flow catalytic converters installation
– Properly optimizes and adjusts fuel and ignition maps for the new modifications
– Provides an additional 100 wheel horsepower over stock
VRP Upgraded Diverter Valve Pair
The factory diverter valves are prone to leaking pressure under increased boost. To help keep the boost pressure constant all the way to redline, upgrading the stock diverter valve to the VR Racing Diverter Valve Kit was necessary. These valves are CNC machined 6061 aluminum which have been precision engineered to fit with the stock or aftermarket boost hoses. The internal construction of the valve uses a machined piston with proper o-rings to ensure a smooth motion that is air tight to prevent any boost leaks. The spring has been engineered to hold moderate to aggressive boost increases on your turbo car.
Diverter Valve Benefits
– Helps eliminate back pressure
– Recirculates boost pressure for better throttle response and less turbo lag
H&R Sport Springs
H&R has introduced their Sport Spring lowering kit tailored for the Porsche 911 Turbo | Turbo S. These Sport Springs lower the vehicle’s center of gravity, minimizing body roll and improving its handling capabilities. This also helps with a more aggressive stance, all while retaining the factory suspension components. All H&R springs are crafted from a special (hf) 54SiCr6 spring steel to ensure premium quality and performance.
Sport Spring Benefits
– Maintaines all factory Porsche suspension components for reliability
– Lowers the center of gravity for better handling
– Gives the car a lower, sportier look while keeping the factory handling
VRP Cold Air Intake Kit
Unlocking maxium power starts with airflow, and the Porsche 991 Turbo knows it well. Upgrading the stock intake system in this beast can be quite the challenge due to its redesigned engine bay. But look no further! Our kit is here to revolutionize the game. We’ve retained the factory intake snorkel, channeling airflow directly to our twin cone air filters. These filters aren’t just any—they feature a high-flow filtration design to stop more bad particles while keeping an extremely high efficiency. Each filter comes with an intake tube that is powdercoated wrinkle black made from 6061 heat treated aluminum and TIG welded.
The VRP cold air intake kit is a game-changer, giving the Turbo quick throttle response, almost like driving in perpetual sport mode all the time. Need proof? With this kit, we were able to pick up 0.1sec quicker 0-60mph. Dyno tests will reveal a gain of about 15ft/lbs of torque at the peak while horsepower gain is 10awhp at peak RPM.
Cold Air Intake Benefits
– Increases air flow
– Improves sound and appearance
– Increases Horsepower and Torque
VR Forged D03-R Wheel Set
No matter what kind of car you have, nothing makes a statement quite like some tasteful wheels! We chose the VR Forged D03-R Wheels powedercoated in signal green. This touch pays homage to classic Porsche Carrera RS livery. For this build, a classic 10-spoke with an outer ring design gives it that racing sporty look while still maintaining an air of sophistication and elegance thanks to their unique design. It’s definitely an upgrade that can’t be ignored! Plus they come in 20 x 9 +45 front & 20 x 12 +45 rear sizes so they fit perfectly on the 991.1 Turbo without any issues whatsoever.
Forged Wheel Benefits
– Improves performance and aesthetics
– Provides a “Euro motorsports flare” compared to previous 5-spoke wheels
– Increases strength and provides weight savings over factory wheels
VR Aero Carbon Fiber Wing Lip Spoiler
The Porsche 991 Turbo and Turbo S are incredibly designed vehicles in performance, handling, and aerodynamics. But with all 911 body styles, there is one thing that really makes the iconic shape stand out over stock vehicles. That is, of course, the addition of a more aggressive rear spoiler. For years people have been upgrading the rear ends to feature a GT2 or GT3 style rear spoilers. With the 991 Turbo, the factory hydraulic rear spoiler and front spoiler work hand and hand to provide incredible aerodynamic ability. At 300kph, the 991 Turbo can produce 132kg of downforce, allowing it to lap the Nordschleife two seconds faster than in the normal mode. To keep these incredible stats but add extra styling, we added one final touch – VR Aero Carbon Fiber Wing Lip Spoiler for a little extra pizzazz!
This is a simple add on piece that installs in less than 30 minutes. It allows it to fit snuggly on the stock spoiler curves without drilling or cutting into anything. It wraps around the front and rear of the factory wing blade to lock in place. The lightweight carbon fiber piece is styled to match other VR Aero carbon fiber parts.

– Requires no special tools to install
– 2×2 Carbon weave Carbon Fiber

For a touch of sporty elegance, we installed the VR Aero Carbon Fiber Side Air Ducts. These lightweight carbon fiber pieces are not only styled to match other VR Aero carbon fiber parts but also adds a unique aesthetic appeal to the 991 Turbo. These air vents provide additional cooling and lend a bold and aggressive look to the vehicle.

Our goal was to find best performing upgrades and develop them at affordable price. This rear diffuser isn’t just an addition; it’s a statement. Crafted to seamlessly attach to the OEM rear bumper, it’s designed to flow the lines of the rear skirt. This carbon fiber piece not only adds flair but amplifies the rear end of the 991, making heads turn wherever you go.

VRP Porsche PDK Cup Style Shifter Stick
Last but not least, we’ve added the VR Performance Cup Shifter for more fun and engaging shifting experience. This shifter was designed to give PDK owners a whole new experience in driving their car. Mimicked after the factory cup car style shift knob and assembly, this makes banging through the gears a lot more fun. We also wanted to maintain OEM+ style for this build as Porsche interiors already have great features from the factory. The height of the shifter is increased about 3 inches over the stock PDK lever. This puts the Cup Shifter at a great position in reference to the steering wheel. You now can have quick hand placement from the steering wheel to shift knob to smash through the gears like a pro!
Sifter Features
– Added longer shifter knob with button actuator
– Gives sequential style shifting feel
– Gives the interior OEM+ look
