Singer unveils DLS Turbo Porsche 911 Sorcerer with 700+ hp
Singer Vehicle Design reveals the first customer Porsche 911 DLS Turbo, nicknamed Sorcerer, featuring a 3.8-liter turbo engine with over 700 hp and track-focused upgrades.
American company Singer Vehicle Design has unveiled the first customer Porsche 911 built under its DLS Turbo program. Based on a Porsche 911 Type 964, this car earned the nickname Sorcerer from its owner. It features a Fantasia Blue exterior, Champagne-colored magnesium centerlock wheels, and an interior trimmed in Pebble Grey leather and Pearl Grey Alcantara.
Founded in California in 2009, Singer operates several programs, including Classic Turbo, DLS, and DLS Turbo. Founder Rob Dickinson notes that the DLS Turbo project is the most ambitious, focusing on the evolution of the 911 for both road and track.
As with other Singer restomods, the original car is stripped to its steel monocoque, with the chassis then reinforced. The Sorcerer’s key technical highlight is its engine—the first Singer build to use water-cooled cylinder heads alongside air-cooled cylinders and an electric fan. It employs twin variable-geometry turbochargers. This 3.8-liter flat-six produces over 700 horsepower and 750 Nm of torque.
Power goes to the rear wheels via an "optimized" six-speed manual transmission. The exhaust system, crafted from Inconel alloy and titanium, features side exits.
The body panels are made from carbon fiber. At the owner’s request, the car is configured for track use with a deep front spoiler and an enlarged rear wing. The suspension includes double wishbones up front and lightweight rear links, while braking is handled by CCM-R carbon-ceramic discs. Other features include a front-lift system, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, and five stability-control tuning modes.
