Porsche 930 Hides Formula 1 Engine Underneath

Who Wants A Street-Legal F1 Engined Porsche?

We recently took a look at the TAG-Turbo 911 (Powered by Lanzante) and today we bring you another one of these special machines. During the Goodwood Festival of Speed this YouTuber filmed this insane Street-legal Porsche 930 TAG Turbo by Lanzante. It is fitted with a Formula 1 1.5 liter V6 Turbo Engine. In this video you will hear the engine sounds and see flames from the exhaust. It is an absolute monster.

Lanzante, famous for its McLaren F1 GTR victory in Le Mans 1995 and then for its road conversions for McLaren F1 GTRs and P1 GTRs, is the company behind this fantastic project. The idea comes from the original Porsche 930 TAG Turbo prototype, built by McLaren to test the 1.5-liter TAG-Porsche Turbo V6 engine that powered its F1 cars in the mid-80s. They reached an agreement with McLaren, 11 TAG-Porsche engines will be used to power 11 Porsche 930s. These engines aren’t new but real, actual Porsche-built TAG engines used in F1 races during the 1980s (with plaques mounted in the engine bay listing the engine’s 1980s race history and drivers).
