@Hoppelmoppel
I need help with German language.
In Sport Auto 11/1991 was a comparison of 964 Carrera RS and 964 Turbo 3.3 with powerkit (365PS).
Did I understood correct that test was at Nordschleife Full (20,8km) and laptimes was 8:28 for Carrera RS and 8:33 for Turbo respectively?

And to think that modern hatchbacks are much faster now. Insane.

Very true. However back in 2005 two cars already managed 8:35. The Focus ST and the Astra OPC with 225 and 240 PS.

Do you have a scan of the Technical data and performance of the turbo 3.3 powerkit?

Yes, surprisingly it's not really faster than regular 320 ps turbo:
