The cost of getting 550 to the wheels will be so high that a flat fan conversion would not be out of line with build costs... yes I know they're crazy expensive. I was looking at trying to turbo charge my 3.6 911, and for the same money I bought a nice 944 turbo and make as much power as my blown 3.6 would have made...and I still have the 911. I wouldn't even think about trying to get that much power reliably out of an old air cooled engine without spending a fortune on it. Probably would be light years ahead of the game if you sold whatever you have and started with a 996 TT. Prices are low right now and they dont have the IMS problems that the wet sump engines have....
