Designed as a daily-driver-turned-track-tool, the 987 S underwent a major exterior overhaul, with a detachable CFRP front splitter, fenders, side skirts, carbon fiber exterior mirrors and an adjustable rear spoiler, along with a set of three-piece, central locking 18-inch BBS RS wheels wrapped in Pirelli rubber.<\/p>\n<p>Inside, the stock stereo and air conditioning remain, but a set of Recaro GT3 seats with six-point Schroth harnesses and a roll cage make it ready for a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/11\/23\/flash-mob-police-reportedly-bust-illegal-night-race-on-hockenhe\/\">late night assault on Hockenheim<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Somewhat disappointingly, the only modifications to the engine are a Super Sprint Magnum cat-back exhaust and an ECU tune which boosts output to 310 horsepower and brings a top speed of 177 mph. However, XTR isn&#8217;t stopping there &#8212; they&#8217;re working on a twin-turbocharged version that will reportedly put out around 850 hp when it arrives next spring.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/xtr-carchip-porsche-cayman-s-x-wide\/low\/\">XTR CarChip Porsche Cayman S X-Wide<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/xtr-carchip-porsche-cayman-s-x-wide\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/11\/01-xtr-cayman_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/xtr-carchip-porsche-cayman-s-x-wide\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/11\/02-xtr-cayman_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/xtr-carchip-porsche-cayman-s-x-wide\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/11\/03-xtr-cayman_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/xtr-carchip-porsche-cayman-s-x-wide\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/11\/04-xtr-cayman_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/xtr-carchip-porsche-cayman-s-x-wide\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/11\/05-xtr-cayman_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>[Source: XTR Carchip via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.porschepoint.com\/porsche-cayman-x-wide-by-xtr-carchip\/\">Porsche Point<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/11\/24\/xtr-carchip-porsche-cayman-x-wide-is-the-rs-weve-always-wanted\/\">XTR Carchip Porsche Cayman X-Wide is the RS we&#8217;ve always wanted<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Tue, 24 Nov 2009 19:56:00 EST.
