I also agree felt the same way when I bought my car.

So I turboed it.

That helped alot:)

Did you add a turbo to your SC engine or add a turbo engine to your SC car? If you added a turbo to your SC is there a company selling parts or a website detailing such a conversion?

Thank you,

I put a 1975 ROW 3.0L 930 motor in my car. One of the best things that I could have done to my car. Then I did a bunch of other things.

You're in Portland, OR - so you have a smog check to get thru.

I would visit Steve W. and get his opinion. In exchange, you can buy parts form them & let them do whatever part of the labor you don't want/can't do yourself. You're lucky to be so close.

I expect the 964 cams will come into it...

The 3.6 would be great and actually pollutes a lot less than a CIS motor, but it ain't no 2k upgrade.

It really doesn't take that much to fabricate a turbo system for your SC engine, i did it, it is relatively inexpensive to do. It can be pulled together for less than a pair of PMO carburetors and you can easily get 300 + hp with mild boost.
Look over this thread it has a wealth of information.
