the engineers could never resist making a more powerful, limited edition model. Known as the 959 S (Sport), just 29 of the total production left the factory with a more powerful specification, the power output having been boosted to 515bhp. http://www.zeperfs.com/en/fiche3733-porsche-959-sport.htm has almost all the specs for the 959 sport.....515ps*
