Produced from 1976 to 1981, the 935 was one of the most successful cars of the Group 5 era. The chassis was of an unitary steel construction, and the engine was the famous Typ 930\/72. At the time, a Group 5 car could have an engine up to 4 l and should weigh only 970 kg. So to keep things light, Porsche opted for turbo-charging. That meant that using the 1.4\u00d7 turbo equivalency rule, the new engine could only have 2857 cm\u00b3. The engineering team then fitted a large KKK turbo hung behind the engine, mated to an intercooler. The resulting <a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.classicdriver.com\/sites\/default\/files\/collectibles_images\/1768g.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">flat-6<\/a> delivered a massive 580 to 630 hp, depending on the tune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.w-143.com\/+upload\/porsche\/race\/porsche_935-77_41_02.jpg\" alt=\"935\/77 #41\"\/><figcaption>Spark at it&#8217;s finest &#8211; the 935\/77 #41 is a fantastic model!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Though the 935 obtained good results in 1976, by the end of the year Porsche was already working on it\u2019s replacement. Many details were changed or upgraded, but the big difference would be the engine. One of the main issues with the 930\/72 engine was the turbo lag caused by that huge single turbo. To address that Porsche used <i>two<\/i> <i>smaller <\/i>KKK turbos instead. With twin-turbocharging the new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.achim-hartmann.com\/galleries\/140PorscheGenerationen1\/photos\/_Porsche-turbo-0991.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Typ 930\/77<\/a> delivered up to 680 hp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.w-143.com\/+upload\/zgroup\/porsches_32.jpg\" alt=\"935\/77 #41\"\/><figcaption>Oh I love the Martini war paint!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Porsche built three works cars, and for the <i>24 Heures du Mans<\/i> of 1977 they fielded 935\/77 #41 (chassis <a aria-label=\"#935-005-R19 (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/b4\/b7\/eb\/b4b7ebeb67dd539b109e06ebde1ebbbb.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">#935-005-R19<\/a>). However, factory cars don\u2019t guarantee results, and the Martini car abandoned on lap 52 with engine troubles.
