-Engine is the 2.7 tt from an audi s4 with a stand alone ecu.
-Trans is a 5 speed boxster trans (audi 012) with boxster cable shifters
-Muffler is from a boxster S and chopped up
-The front and rear suspension are off of a 993 w/H&R springs
-Fuel tank is from a 964
-The Sc flares had to be cut off to accomodate the new stance and we have 930 flare to replace them.
-Car is a roller and the engine has been running in the chassis. Still working on completing all of the plumbing.

Mike,
I replied to a thread requesting info on 5 link suspension upgrades on the 914 world site and you said that "this thread was worthless without pictures" so I felt inclined to post photos of the car. Since I posted some photos on that site I thought I should post some over here also.

I think I need to make the 20 mile trip to Orinda so I can properly drool over your car... I think it would be worth seeing pics of the entire fab process, if you feel like posting more pics...
