Engine and Turbocharger Reference
The Porsche 911 Turbo manual delivers a deep dive into the mechanical layout of the 930 engine family, making it an essential reference for shop technicians. It outlines component configurations for the light-alloy, two-piece crankcase and forged crankshaft. You will find detailed breakdowns of the turbocharger oil supply circuit, waste gate pressure control valve, and the intake air intercooler. Furthermore, the documentation provides the exact data needed for Continuous Injection System (CIS) adjustments and idle settings across various global market configurations.
Specifications and Technical Data
Accurate figures are critical when handling the Type 930 build. This publication lists strict reference values for piston and cylinder clearances, valve spring lengths, and ignition timing. Cylinder head bolt torque values follow a precise multi-stage sequence, starting at 33 Nm for initial assembly. Engine rebuilding requires exact tolerances, so the manual includes multi-size wear tables for crankshaft bearing journal dimensions, alongside intake valve clearances set at 0.10 mm and a total system oil capacity of 13 liters. Because these high-performance systems demand absolute precision, always ensure hands-on mechanical work is performed safely by qualified personnel relying directly on these authoritative OEM specifications.
