Scaled-Down Porsche Engine Scales Up The Awesome: Video

Amazing !

Wouldn't that be cool mounted on my lawn mower.

Very cool.

Impressive!

I had the 1/8th scale version built by a Japanese company, Marushin. They made a total 50 engines.....40 kits and 10 built by the factory. I was very lucky to find one of the built ones. Press down on the gas pedal and it would rev and run like the real deal. Only on compressed air!

Beautiful...

For those in Southern California this place is awesome. The Internet Craftsmanship Museum

I have visited there and was very impressed by the work that people have done. Worth the trip.

It looks cool, but sounds like Vince Vaughn doing a motorboat impersonation.

Love the throttle response.

I'm breathlessly waiting to see and hear the one you build that sounds a lot more realistic!

OK, ready?

Here goes: "Bbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrp! (inhale), Bbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"

I saw that earlier this week posted on another forum. Pretty cool.

Great stuff BUT I knew a local guy who spent 90% of his time working on scratch built model cars.
He never married or had kids and never had a regular job but his models were beautiful and he sold them to people around the world.

I guess he was happy but he died alone at age 67.

Not a Porsche but an incredible build:

Everything works!

Enjoy :)
