Porsche’s Prodigy

Here’s an excellent review & technical insight on the revised Porsche 911 (997). It finally features direct injection in the engine as well as a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox (PDK).  Another innovation would be a revolutionary oil pump that pumps oil at variable flow rate based on engine load.

The website has an excellent layout too. Be sure to watch the video about running the engine on a dyno as it simulates g-force loading. This was done to ensure the engine would be lubricated under any condition.
