With a displacement of 2.9 liters (the engine is technically a 2.85-liter unit), the 959 was about a liter down compared to most 911s of the day. With the block, heads and pistons made from aluminum, combined with titanium connecting rods and a dry-sump oiling system, the engine was very light and very compact. This engine used an interesting dual-cooling solution that saw the cylinders stay cooled via air as all Porsches were, but the heads had water cooling. Equipped with a pair of sequential turbochargers, Porsche was able to push the horsepower of this motor up to 444 ponies with torque coming in at 369 pound-feet. Porsche used this sequential turbo setup, rather than the traditional usual turbo setup to improve responsiveness and cut lag.Making sure this engine can get power to the road, Porsche created a new Porsche-Stuer Kupplung (PSK) all-wheel-drive system. Even today the PSK system is considered to be one of the most advanced ever made. Many modern systems can vary torque to various axles, but this alteration of torque only occurs when slippage occurs. The PSK system could vary power in normal running conditions regardless of wheel slip. While the system ran in a 40:60 configuration most of the time, as much as 80-percent of the power would be routed to the rear wheels under hard acceleration to make the most of the traction afforded by a rear-engine platform.When all was said and done, the Porsche 959 was good to hit the 62-mph mark from a dead stop in just 3.7 seconds. Even 100 mph rolled around in just 8.3 seconds. Top speed was a record setting 197 mph.To help the 959 come to a stop quickly, it was fitted with the largest set of brakes Porsche had put on a production car. The rotors where 12.6-inches up front and 12.1-inches in the rear. These rotors where ventilated and cross-drilled to improve performance. All four tires were clamped by aluminum, four-piston calipers and the car was fitted with ABS as well, another first for a Supercar.Come in and test drive today, on your way to ownership!************************************DESCRIPTION DISCLAIMER:At Formula Imports we pride ourselves on detailed and accurate listings for all our vehicles.
