The beginning of the 911 Turbo era.

The production Porsche 911 Turbo made its debut at the Paris Motor Show in 1974. Its turbocharged three-litre flat-six produced 260 PS. The global launch followed in spring 1975, beginning the story of the road-going 911 Turbo, whose first generation was designated 930.

In the full-size engine, the turbocharger uses exhaust energy to compress the intake air. The model lets you explore the distinctive pipework and observe the mechanism of the flat-six engine.

From Porsche's history.

Before series production began, a unique example was built for Louise Piëch. She received it for her 70th birthday in August 1974. The car had a 2.7-litre engine and a narrower body than the later production version.

An engine

We are planning to pair Porsche engine kits with XPSD display cases, giving your finished model a place to be displayed.

Bundle prices and details will be announced once the offer is ready. The displayed price covers the engine kit only.

Before
you start building.

Building for yourself, together, or as a gift? Start by choosing a design and checking the recommended age.

Is this a real engine?

This is an engine model kit with moving parts and a sound module. It is not a combustion engine designed to power a vehicle.

What does the kit include?

The parts for your chosen model and a book with assembly instructions. Three 1.5 V AA batteries are also needed to run it.

Who are these kits for?

For ages 14 and up, with an interest in Porsche, mechanics and model building. This recommendation applies to all three featured kits.

Is this a good Christmas gift?

Yes, for someone interested in Porsche and mechanics who enjoys building things. Consider the recommended age of 14+ and the additional batteries required to run the model.

Will engine kits be available with an XPSD display case?

We are planning engine kits bundled with an XPSD display case. Pricing and details have not been confirmed yet. The displayed price covers the engine kit only, without a display case.
