it's more complicated than that. what is your ultimate goal ?

most hp for the buck?
how about reliability? are you willing to blow up your car to attain this goal?

figure out what you want first, then find out how to get there.

Yea I know, it is a tough question. Maybe I'll leave the car alone and be happy with the way it runs now. But the quest for torque/hp never goes away does it :) Like when I had an early 911 and changed the engine 3 times from 2.4 to 3.0 to 3.2 !!

(I'm not sure if I can use that accuboost controller with my dualport wastegate. ??? I headed to their site now.)


Thanks,

well if you're going at it like that, i would buy something that is capable of a lot, then start at the low end of the power available and tweak a little every so often. seems like a lot of trouble to go to, geez three engine changes! i see a lot of people looking for more horsepower, but why on earth do you need it? i know it's nice to go fast, really fast, i just can't find anywhere to use the power on the street. the 944 gets me in enough trouble as it is...

i've never desired more horsepower from my 944, and i doubt i will modify my 951 (if i hadn't had the opportunity to buy it so cheap i probably wouldn't have). i never have and never will understand this 'horsepower craze'. sure more power is nice, but power is nothing without control. so for now i'll attempt pushing (on the track) the envelope of the 944, and then move on to the 951... in stock forms.

crazy with mods
 

Mike you need to email me more to bring me to my senses! You are so right about not being able to really use big HP on the street ! We all know this but continue to press on with the performance mods. What I should do is trade my 951 for a small Kubota with a front loader. :)

What ever floats your boat, some people love it, some people want a 'quick' car.

To all his own :)

we don't all continue to press on with performance mods. if i'm ever in need of more performance, i'll modify. for now, i'll learn to use what i have.

enjoy your car, i'll enjoy mine

love, peace, n chicken grease!

be prepared to bring some cash with you if you are going to trade up to Kubota. They start at $14,000 for one with a front end loader on it. Heck you can buy alot of 951 for $14,000.

My vote is for you to crank out a LS-1 swap then add a turbo to that. You will have more HP available than you could ever want or need.
