I never understood why 944 timing belts break during ownership. Its a clear maintenance item, no difference than brakes wearing out or a clutch, its not rocket science to change either as these are basic single cam 8 valve engines. It reflects poorly on an owner (or their mechanic) if a timing belt breaks and damages the motor.

I don't have lag issues with my car, a modern turbo, MAF conversion and a well designed exhaust to help the car breathe have addressed these things without adding any additional stress to the engine.
