After the successful introduction of the Porsche 944 Turbo (951/952) in the year 1985, Porsche started the development of a race car basing on the 951 which would then lead to the first one make race series in the history of Porsche. The car and the Cup were called 944 Turbo Cup.

The cup cars received a number of performance-enhancing modifications which were implemented into the serial production with the 944 Turbo S.

The turbo cup cars were undertaken a continuous optimization, power output was increased from 220 bhp to 250 bhp and to 290 bhp for French cup cars.

The Turbo Cup was carried out in Germany from 1986 to 1989 and in France from 1987 to 1990. While in 1990 in Germany the 944 Turbo Cup was taken over by the 964 Carrera Cup, the Turbo Cup in France was continued for one more year and saw the ultimate evolution of these cars.
