Switzer Nissan GT-R P800 - Click above for high-res image gallery
If you want a Porsche to beat all other Porsches, Switzer Performance is a good place to start. The Ohio-based aftermarket tuner continues to crank out 800-horsepower 911s that would make even 9ff sweat. But what if you don't want to beat a Porsche with your Porsche? What if you want to beat a Porsche with, say... a Nissan GT-R? Not an uncommon pursuit, and Switzer is glad to help there, too.
One GT-R owner turned to the tuning house with a simple mandate: increase the power-to-weight ratio. Switzer answered by reducing the weight while increasing the power at the same time. The P800 package includes new intercoolers, air intakes, turbochargers and exhaust - the latter a ceramic-coated titanium system - plus a new spoiler and sport seats. The result? 200 pounds off the scale and 300 more horsepower, for a total of 800 horses and 700 pound-feet of torque. Yeah, that ought to do the trick. Check out the photos in the gallery below.
