C/D Turbo Carrera Article
From the C/D Archives: 1976 Porsche Turbo Carrera and 912E (Dec. 1975) - Car and Driver Blog
Found this cool Car and Driver article reviewing the 76 turbo. They got 4.9 and 13.5 for the 60/ 1/4 miles times which isnt too bad for less than 250 horses (not sure if it was a euro model). Patrick Bedard also gives a break down of the wastegate, decel valve and boost switch workings in a sub article. If i had the loot and patience, a 3.2 ss turbo sleeper would be in my garage. enjoy

First photo I remember of the new Turbo was in either Motor Trend or R&T, a color shot that showed a Turbo fully sideways at speed and crossed-up. I was 12 and hooked forever.
