I am at this time considering a turbo install on my 3.0 engine, I would be using the guts of a used bae turbo kit for the 911sc. I know that I will have to do a lot of fabricating and loose some useable storage space in the trunk. I have enough support from those who have had the turbo kit installed on there cars for 20 years, and have sorted all the little problems out.
I now have to justify the need for 300hp, when my car runs great as is, but lacks a little heart pounding thrill. I like the idea of turbocharging as it is all external, biggest hp gains without internal modifications, and I have the capabilites of fabricating the plumbling. Plus it can be done for less than a pair of carbs. Someone twist my arm, it's a turbo or it's a new paint job for the car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Chappy |

Ok, I went and sprung (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif) for it. The bae turbo kit will be on it's way soon. The paint will have to wait a little longer, now comes the fun part figuring out the best place to put it, and how. I always wanted to have a 914 turbo Porsche. Yeee Haaa. I will post as I progress through it as a record to all who may wish to do it in the future.
