Yes, the modern 934 build.Thank-you for the info. 650 whp should be sufficient :)
1)Will that fit under a regular 911 deck lid ?
2)One more question regarding turbo engines:
To run for some longevity at 0.9 Boost,is a larger displacement engine, say going from 3.6 to 3.8 allow the engine to run with less effort. Does the larger displacement make it easier to attain higher HP/Torque numbers?

1. It should, yes. If that was a requirement, we would confirm before shipping it out.
You would surely relocate any rear AC condenser.

2. Why only 0.9bar boost? Or 1.0bar? Who says that is the magic number at which everything is AOK?
In my experience, longevity is more a matter of the design of the engine, the strength/quality of the components used (particularly the pistons & cylinders), and controlling the temperatures.

But everything else equal, yes -- a larger displacement engine can make the same power (torque) at less boost pressure as a smaller displacement engine at higher boost pressure.
