Porsche 911 R to pack 500 naturally aspirated horsepower and a stick

Porsche currently has two schools of thought when it comes to power for its cars. One side of the equation wants to turbo everything for more power from smaller engines with better fuel economy.

Porsche is making cars that call on both sides of that equation with all the 911s getting turbo engines this year save a few. The big NA car for Porsche is the mighty GT3, but soon Porsche will have a car that sits under the GT3 and shares the NA power.
