A buddy of mine has a 1000HP Corvette that he has less than $30K in total and drives it everywhere. Goes from the beach getting 30mpg to the track and pulls 6 flat 1/8th mile times. You build your 930 for your own enjoyment, lots of ways to do that.

Right on,
There is only so much "modernizing' you can do and you are still dealing with a very old car. If you want to go fast easily, buy a new car, if you want to go fast with out drivers aids and have it be a handful and dramatic,> Fun, 930.
My car is total "old school" every thing, Ruf 5-speed, Ruf P/C's, intercooler, turbo, exhaust, etc. Andial twin plug distributor with Bosch CDI, Carrillo rods and 935 heads that smoke on startup, it is a stinky, loud, old, dangerous, fast car, Just the way I like it.
I have all the old school stuff because it is Cheap, I paid $25K modifed, a stock 930 would sell for about twice that, around 50k at that time.
My next 'mod' will be a hydraulic clutch linkage, after 30 years/85,000 miles of a heavy clutch, the steel tube in the tub for the clutch cable is ruined with a grove worn in it and I do not want to buy another Ruf cable.
