Hmmm.... the K16 turbo is used on the 997TT. That's a 3.6 with two turbos, so each turbo is seeing ~1.8l. I bet that would come in nicely on a 2270.

Need some sort of fancy software to run the variable turbine. Its a trick setup. Those cars boost off idle. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) |

Oh boy! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Porsche-911-996-Tw...=p2054897.l4275 Would be perfect for hillclimbs, but classing, in SCCA would kill it for autox. Nice part, build a subframe to hold it and you're done. Scared to ask the weight. |

None of the K16 I've looked at have VVT. Looks like they're available withoot them. I'll have to see if I can find an actual model number on the turbos for the 997. VVT also doesn't use waste gates.

Great price on it though. 2200, ouch! SCCA rules are ass backwards, should be based upon HP, not CC'S. On the other hand it sure would make a good hill climb motor. And could use it at Medford. Wonder what the motor, transmission and suspension pieces weigh? Probably 700lbs. |
