As a former owner of an '86 951 (944 turbo), my thoughts:

-The ride height seems higher than stock in the rear.
-Everything under the hood looks stock other than some powder coating.
-The fenders and wheels do look a little wider. I wonder how much more they weigh?

Overall, it seems like it would add some significant weight without really improving performance. This is a car that made around 250 hp and weighed 2900 lbs. stock. It looks to me like it's a stock motor pushing somewhere north of 3200 lbs. Most of the stuff hanging off of that car would have to be much closer to pavement for the desired effect so it's just mostly added weight for show.
