3.2 Carreras were 200hp in US cars, (214? for G50 cars), and 231 hp for ROW cars w/o US cats.
Row 78, 79 was 180. Not 188 until 80.

Later US cars did probably have more than 180 as well. But the factory numbers were always 180. Maybe Porsche decided that they did not want to chalenge US import regulations.

They got higher compression in 81 as I recall. But intake runners got smaller in diameter.

Anyways.....all of them are nice cars.
