2011 Porsche 911 (997.2) Turbo S — BBi Autosport Build

This 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S (997.2) is a professionally developed performance example finished in Meteor Grey Metallic over a black interior, combining the factory Turbo S specification with an extensive performance and chassis program from BBi Autosport.

The car carries approximately 650 horsepower, Öhlins TTX suspension, a widened front track, and a BBi Street Cup monoball conversion, along with BBi engine management, exhaust, and supporting upgrades — a significantly more focused version of an already exceptional car, with the emphasis on power, suspension control, steering response, and driver engagement.

The BBi Autosport build

BBi Autosport developed the car as a comprehensive performance build, with modifications extending well beyond simple power increases. The focus was a more capable and responsive chassis, while keeping the performance and usability inherent to the 997.2 Turbo S:

• BBi Autosport ECU calibration
• BBi performance exhaust system
• High-flow Y-pipe
• Öhlins TTX suspension, front and rear
• Widened front track
• BBi Street Cup monoball conversion
• Performance-oriented suspension modifications
• Chassis and handling upgrades
• Brake optimization
• Weight reduction modifications
• Additional supporting performance components

The resulting package produces approximately 650 horsepower, according to the original BBi build specification.

The combination of Öhlins TTX dampers, increased front track width, and the monoball conversion substantially changes the character of the car compared with a standard Turbo S: more control and adjustability from the suspension, and sharper turn-in, more immediate chassis response, and a more direct connection to the road from the front end.

Factory Turbo S equipment

Underneath the BBi modifications is the factory specification of the 997.2 Turbo S — Porsche’s 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged flat-six, a 7-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission, all-wheel drive, Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes, and the Turbo S-specific performance equipment. Factory drivetrain with BBi’s chassis development is a compelling combination for anyone after a 997 that offers both serious performance and real-world usability.

Inside

The cabin is finished in black leather, with Recaro sport seats, carbon fiber interior trim, and the Turbo S-specific interior equipment. It keeps the character and functionality expected of a 997 Turbo S while the Recaros and carbon details reinforce the car’s performance intent.

Outside

Meteor Grey Metallic is an understated and particularly attractive colour on the 997 platform. The wide-body Turbo S proportions give the car real road presence, while the BBi suspension and chassis work complement the factory bodywork without making the car look excessively modified — a purposeful, understated appearance that only hints at the development underneath.

Mileage

At 72,950 miles, this is a Porsche that has been driven and enjoyed rather than preserved solely as a low-mileage collector example. For an enthusiast that is the opportunity: a highly developed 997.2 Turbo S that can keep being driven, without starting from a standard car and trying to recreate what a professionally developed build already delivers.

In short

An exciting combination of Porsche’s factory engineering and professional aftermarket development from one of the most respected names in Porsche performance. Meteor Grey Metallic over black, Recaro sport seats, carbon fiber trim, PDK, all-wheel drive, PCCB, approximately 650 horsepower, Öhlins TTX suspension, widened front track, and the BBi Street Cup monoball conversion — far more than a lightly modified Turbo S, and a car that stays usable on the road while offering substantially more performance and engagement than the factory configuration.
