I am going to pull my engine this week after an embarassing weekend at sears point. Too little horsepower. Can't even keep up with the 944's. I hope to build up my 2.0L into something pretty strong, probably in the 140hp range. I will be keeping the stock FI if I can, but if I can sell the stock FI, maybe I go carbs?

Where should I start? What should I get? I do have a budget, so I want to keep the costs somewhat moderate. Help me out. Thanks! Terrance (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) |

Terrance,
depending upon your ultimate goal... It is cheaper to improve lap times by buying seat time, lessons, and tires than it is to build a 140hp/4 I ran 140hp/4's for about 10 years and learned that my quicker lap times came from skill and style more than a fresh $6,000 motor. just a thought. brant |
