    Hey guys, I saw the orange GT3RS park and guess what, when the owner switch off the engine, theres still some strange idling sounds going on in the car! Its the same as those 997 GT3 i saw, btw are there any other porsche models with this special feature. Some says its the turbo timer but the gt3 is natural aspirated..??

    The cooling fans can come on when the engine is off. They are notably loud, so I'm thinking that this could be what you heard.

    Ok, so its not some turbo timer someone told me..? Cause as we all know gt3s don't have turbo so it must be the cooling fans...

    It's cooling fans. There are no turbo timers in Porsches. Only ricers.
