930 US Spec to Euro
Originally U.S. spec. Now in Norway and fully converted to European spec.

16Volt, after reading some of your posts, I see a color change in your future.

But What about the engine?
Everyone knows the EURO's have about 600+HP stock, that must be a lot of work??

Forgive me for asking, but what's the point of the conversion?(other than not running a CAT)

^^^ It basically it seems that the point of the conversion is to simply say one did it. Of course some like the AA bumper tits over the DD, and the lower ride height looks better, but as far as the K-Jet fuel system is concerned, it has been proven that the US spec, aluminum fuel head can actually be made to flow more fuel than the euro version, the ero version is much more prone to corrosion (cast steel v aluminum) and the US spec head has a better, more durable, primary diaphragm, too. The conversion would definitely be a lot of buck for very little bang, but it just boils down to personal preference.

"euro spec" discount no more
That wasn't cheap. This should put to rest forever all the debates over whether a euro spec car is worth less than a US car, all else equal. it's an international market for early turbos now, and anyone who will go to the time and expense to convert a US car to euro spec would surely have been happy to restore a car that was already euro...

^^^ Ha! Yep the aluminum one looks much more betterer (as Paul would say) than the Euro version that looks like it was made by pouring molten cast iron into a mold chipped out of stone with an air chisel!
