Paul Stephens set out to improve the 993 911 Carrera by at least 25 per cent in every area. We find out if they've succeeded -
Thinner glass from the Porsche Motorsport department, lighter carpet and sound deadening are utilised too, and the 993’s heavy interior panels have been replaced with lighter replicas that also bring the additional benefit of reducing the panel gaps from Grand Canyon sized to one you’d struggle to slide a Rizla paper into.
From low revs it pulls with a precise crispness, every throttle pedal movement resulting in an instant, clean response from over your shoulder. It’s not trigger happy, it’s simply free of any slack throughout the acceleration process.
The result is a ride quality that allows you to exploit that magnificent engine to its full without feeling you are on the verge of being bounced into the next county. It corners with an immediacy, but without immediately taking you to the edge of what the chassis has to offer.
