The Performance Revolution

The GWR is powered by the most advanced naturally aspirated engine ever developed by GW/Rothsport: the Quad Cam Twin Valve Flat-Six 4.0L. Capable of revving up to 9,000 rpm, this high-performance engine delivers over 500 horsepower and 340 lb-ft of torque, all within a vehicle weighing just 2,400 pounds. Its lightweight carbon fiber body contributes to an exceptional power-to-weight ratio of 4.8 lbs per horsepower. This represents a remarkable 25% improvement in power-to-weight ratio compared to the original Porsche® air-cooled 993, as reimagined by Gunther Werks.

Engine

In collaboration with Rothsport, we've developed our groundbreaking 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six engine that redefines performance. Featuring a quad-cam, twin-valve design, this engine revs to an incredible 9000rpm, delivering over 500 horsepower and 340 lb-ft of torque.

GWR

Quad Cam Twin Valve 4.0L

Weighing just 2400 lbs, it boasts a power-to-weight ratio of 4.8 lbs per horsepower, ensuring exceptional acceleration and responsiveness.

Key features include a cutting-edge Slide Valve Throttle Body System, a new intake manifold, and lightweight titanium components in the valvetrain. This engine is the pinnacle of precision and power, setting a new standard in naturally aspirated performance.

Transmission

The original Getrag G50 transmission is retained but has been fully re-engineered with custom gear ratios.

The shift linkage has been upgraded for improved precision, and the transmission is paired with a single-mass mid-weight flywheel and an enhanced single-plate clutch for superior engagement. Additionally, a new lower-ratio limited-slip differential featuring carbon clutches has been integrated to maximize traction and handling.

Turbofan Wheels

The flat surface of the wheel face greatly reduces aerodynamic drag and helps deliver a clean aerodynamic wake.

The Aero Fins that sit vertically along the wheel face are designed to increase airflow and cooling over the brakes.

Lighting

A fully bespoke headlight system has been engineered at the front, incorporating the latest advancements in LED technology.

The lighting assembly is constructed using a combination of lightweight, forged T-6061 aluminum components and carbon fiber to support the larger Bi-LED projectors and active daytime running lights. The entire unit is encased in a hand-polished, aerospace-grade glass housing, meticulously designed to integrate modern functionality while preserving the original design aesthetics.

Carbon fiber. Aerodynamic. Purpose-built.

The updated body panel design enhances the GWR's aerodynamics, delivering superior performance. The newly integrated S ducting on the hood generates high-pressure downforce over the front axles, boosting traction and precision handling. The reengineered front bumper features a built-in wicker, fender extraction louvers, and aero vents that channel air away from the tires, minimizing front-end lift caused by tire rotation. At the rear, the open-air bumper, vented ducktail spoiler, and additional taillight vents work together to efficiently expel engine heat, improving overall efficiency.
