Porsche responded to the reorganization of worldwide GT racing with a collection of homologation specials starting with the naturally aspirated 911 RS and culminating within the GT2 Evo. The light-weight RS set the essential template, utilizing a non-turbo air-cooled flat-6 punched out to three.8L and rated at 300 bhp, bolt-on Turbo-style wheel-arch flares, bigger brake discs clamped by 4-piston calipers and adjustable entrance and rear anti-roll bars. Extra clearly outfitted for the monitor, the RSR integrated a full roll cage, a entrance strut brace, an adjustable tail spoiler, 6-point harnesses and a hearth extinguisher.

Porsche wanted one thing extra excessive to race in GT1 occasions so it developed the 911 GT2 Evo. Designed to compete in FIA GT1, it integrated a twin turbocharged 3.6L flat-6 engine rated at a full 600 hp and 490 ft lbs of torque. Porsche managed to get 600 horsepower and 491 pound-feet from the engine, making the GT2 EVO probably the most highly effective 911 in historical past on the time. It was quick too, with dash from 0 to 60 mph was over in about 3.3 seconds and prime pace was rated at 187 mph. The GT2 Evo was short-lived although, with solely 11 ever made, as Porsche determined to interchange it with the purpose-built 911 GT1 in 1996.
