The 1979 Porsche 911 Turbobegan with a 2-mm wider bore that upped displacement to 3,299cc (201.3 cid). No less important was adoption of an air-to-air intercooler for squeezing a denser charge into every intake stroke, thus extracting more energy from every power stroke.The intercooler pushed the A/C condenser to the right side of the whale-tail's air intake -- the main reason for enlarging the distinctive appendage. Compression was higher, if still mild at 7.0:1, and combined with the intercooler and extra cc's for 300 DIN horsepower European at 5,500 rpm (253 SAE net) and 303 pound-feet of torque (282 SAE) at 4,000 rpm.1979 Porsche Turbo went into exile for five long years. Itwas withdrawn from the States as a public-relations response to the second energy crunch that began in early 1979. This is one of the last examples of the pre-blackout of the early 911 Turbos.
