It does not retard it enough, and you don't have a knock sensor on your NA. You would need to install one, along with a new stand alone engine management package.

I spent 12K alone to supercharge my NA only to find that the NA engine was never designed to handle boost. Somehow you will need to also get hold of a 951 head to take benefit of the sodium filled valves and other saftey features. In the end you will essentially build a 951 without the suspension. Thats why it's a waste of time and money.

Why hack a NA for 10K, when you can buy a 6K 951? It just does not make sense financially, trust me I know. Not to mention if and when you get it all done you will still have an NA that blue books at 3K, with 10K under the hood that you will loose if you ever decide to sell it.
