Please fill me in on liter size and weakness of the 2.0.

I have a turbo that may be used in this project. All answers welcome.
This is a lot of money for doing it "hard way". The 2 liter case is very weak and welding a Porsche crank isn't the best approach. I know all of the old VW hot rod tricks being cut from that cloth, but some of those tricks are symptoms of necessity that don't translate well to a Porsche 911. It will be MUCH more cost effective to build a Type 4; the motor will be lighter and will be just as powerful.

What displacement are you looking for?
