Porsche made its first and most significant upgrades to the 930 in 1978, enlarging the engine to 3.3 liters and adding an air-to-air intercooler. By cooling the pressurized air charge, the intercooler helped increase power output to 300 hp; the rear whale tail spoiler was re-profiled and raised slightly to make room for the intercooler. Porsche also upgraded the brakes to units similar to those used on the 917 racecar. Porsche offered the Flachbau (slant nose) option in 1981. This new body style was inspired by the racing 935 Porsches which had their standard headlights "shaved off" for better aerodynamic downforce. The slant-nose package consisted of a new front fenders comprising the now-familiar Flachbau nose with flip-up headlamps and louvers, plus wide 935-type rear fenders with grilled, forward-facing rectangular air scoops and extended rocker panels. It all came from Zuffenhausens new Sonderwunsch (special wish) department, a sort of in-house customizing operation. For 1988, the Slant Nose Modification was made a separate model called Porsche 930S, again available for all body styles. -
