[Herr-Kuhn]

I thought I'd share some comments I received from someone online regarding comparing the costs of converting 928S4 32V to twin turbo power vs. installing a SBC into the 928.

What's wrong with people these days? Can't anybody provide me with an objective argument and an ITEMIZED list of parts and labour to pull this off? Ironic how I offered to provide him my itemized costs on the conversion and as well to send the power and torque curves on the engine as proof of what's what...yet all I get back is this childish drool with absolutely zero substance.

As sent to me:

Re: 928 V8 vs SBC As i stated before, we live in 2 different forms of reality. Personally, I think you keep your nose in too many car magazines. Additionally, I could build a a small block chevy from used and junk yard parts that would run down that over-priced, overly complcated buzz-bomb of yours and send it into the weeds yelping like a stuck pig. Like I said before, torque wins races and horsepower sells motors, plus RPMs kill engines not torque and I won't have to twist it to 7,500 RPMs to get the job done..

I can't help it if you pay too much for a motor and are incapable of performing the work yourself. Keep driving that buzz-bomb and keep paying the fidler. Also, any moron knows you can buy assembled, Chevy small block motors all day long on the internet making between 500 and 600hp for way less than $15,000. Try Jegs.com Blueprint Pro Series Small Block Chevy 427ci/540HP/535TQ Engine for a little over 8,000 dollars already built. I could build this same motor myself, in my own shop for around $6500 dollars and it would leave that pissy little buzz-bomb of yours so fast you would think you entered the twilight zone. No ECU, either. Just a simple carburetor, no complex bull-****. Get real!
