Hello Everyone,

I typically post in the 911 or BMW area's but I just took a leap of faith and bought an 86 944 Turbo. This is my first 944 Turbo although I have owned several 911's and 2 944 Non Turbo's.

I hear the 951 can be made to be extremely fast but I just dont know where to start and what parts are out there to buy and or stay away from.

1. I bought the car on ebay knowing it needed a clutch, so I will be replacing it within the next couple of days, any suggestions on parts?

2. I also saw a few performance chips from Authority on ebay and they were selling pretty cheap, has anyone heard or purchased one of these chips? The stage 1 chips were under $50, the stage 2 chips with the funny bolt were under $150.....

3. I know there is a mass air flow meter upgrade for the car but dont know where to find it or who makes it?

4. Every car I own has sport suspension (H&R Springs) and I want to lower my 951 by use of sport springs, any suggestions on makes? I know the rear is torsion bar so does anyone know how many teeth I need to adjust the arm on the factory torsion bar to attain a 2 inch lower sportier look?

The car has 110K and the timing belts were replaced last year, any other service related things I should be doing to the car at this mileage interval? The turbo seems to be in good working order, spools up and hit the gauge at about 1.5 bar is this normal too?

My intention is to build a moderately quick streetable weekend toy. I have had more than my fair share of 911's and problems related to 911's so I'm used to spending money on Porsche repairs.....lol If this was a 911 I know exactly where I would go, but since it's a 951 I thought I would ask....

Thanks,
Steve
