Also, iirc Manthey came clsoe to 600 hp in their 4.3 and 4.4 variants in the 997 RSR

But I wouldn't mind seeing Porsche to switch to a twin turbo engine. Maybe even "just" the 3.0 engine from the Carrera, which is what the car is homologated on
according to this long telemetry on board at le mans

the upshift is almost always at 9000rpm, but more than once the engine keeps on revving higher even further than that.
991 GT3R has a mandatory revlimit to 9500rpm too.

porsche gtlm is a mere MR car now, they can't say no more that there is no room for turbos there.
I hope they will fit the 3.8 twin turbo from the new gt2 rs
