Powered by a twin-turbocharged, twin-plug 3.8L engine producing 600 HP, this no-expense-spared 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S has been infused with testosterone and adrenaline by S-CAR-GO Racing, a renowned and respected tuner of Zuffenhausen rear-engine rocket ships that is located in the Marin County region of Southern California. The artistry of the company’s workmanship is evident in the custom-fabricated headers, exhaust and air box. Starting with a 993—Porsche’s last generation of the air-cooled 911—the Carrera 4S started life as an all-wheel drive variant of the model lineup.
It came equipped with the identical suspension of the flagship Turbo, but it was powered by a naturally aspirated 285 HP engine—paling in comparison to the 600 HP of this brilliant yellow Carrera 4S. The all-wheel drive system, with its dynamic limited-slip differential and active braking, brought 959 technology and power apportionment to the 993, providing a platform to gracefully accept quantum leaps in horsepower without adversely affecting drivetrain and suspension dynamics. The engine transformation is only part of an integrated package that includes extensive suspension, body work, brake and interior refinements.
The body has been treated to RUF-style body modifications with shaved rain gutters, a custom front and rear fascia and decklid spoiler, and a set of 18-inch HRE R40 lightweight wheels mounted on Michelin performance tires. The interior features black Recaro A8 race seats trimmed in leather and Alcantara with deviating yellow stitching, carbon fiber door panels and a matching roll bar. The brakes are massive floating rotors and multi-piston calipers, and the 6-speed manual transmission is linked to a GT4060 limited-slip differential. This 911 Carrera 4S was a featured car at the 2011 PCA Concours Monterey and is documented with paperwork and photos.
