930 Engine upgrade question
I have a question for the 930 guru's. If you add a long neck intercooler and K27 turbo to a stock 86 930 engine what should you expect in added HP ?
Thanks.

Which K27? Any exhaust changes? Post in the Turbocharged/Supercharged forum for lots of opinions.

An improved intercooler (such as an old school, Garretson, as well as many others) has been proven on dynos to add approximately 25hp.
I can't recall the h/p bump numbers for a k27 7200 (the most common version), but they are significant if you have a free flowing muffler to go along with it (a muffler change alone is worth about 40-45hp). Keep in mind that you don't get the full benefits of either without using an adjustable WUR so fueling can be tuned. Last edited by Rawknees'Turbo; 01-21-2017 at 07:59 AM.. |

The K27 will change the throttle response profile.
How much HP it will add depends on the spring you use in the wastegate. Are you feeling lucky? Bill K

I was going with a 7200 and Fabspeed's long neck intercooler and custom free flowing sport muffler. Open to any advise if there are other versions of the K27. I appreciate the feedback.

I have the borla twin pipe, very nice deep sound. my neighbor, the judge, loves it. when I don't drive the car much he asks where is his alarm clock. I leave at 6am I have tried the sport, did not like it as much
