Thanks,

i am always willing to pass on "bad" ideas

Rick Chip 11-15-2009 08:28 AM

Update!!

Car is on the road, put about 30 miles on yesterday evening. Have not gone over 3200 rpm, but the power is intense. For some reason I cannot upload pictures, hopefully my son can upload from college this evening.

Thanks to Mike Gariga for finishing it up, I would like to think I helped.

Yes....need many more pics and details of what transpired in the last couple months.

Great project!

Damn Rick that's nuts!

sjf911 11-16-2009 07:52 PM

Beautiful! Good job.
A couple of questions. Are those GSF headers and IC? How are you handling the turbo oil return? Also, I thought the C2 gaskets were cut into the cylinders, is there another type? How much advance are you running?

lane912 11-16-2009 08:03 PM

i want to put one of those in my 66' 912 for a conversion!!!!!!
that is awful perty, good job

Rick Chip 11-17-2009 03:34 AM

Thanks Brian - the exhaust is really sweet

The headers and IC are both from GSF.

Turbo oil return is going to the oil drain plug on the bottom of the case

C2 turbo gasket are not cut into the cylinders

Timing is handled by the Protomotive chip you would have to ask Todd Knighton

Thanks for the comments.

Hi Rick,
I have to agree with everyone on this one - fantastic work - and I have been watching with great interest.
Have you used the standard 3.2 MAF?
Kind Regards

Jammo.;)

skinnerd 11-19-2009 09:21 PM

Really is a sweet looking engine.
Enough power I am sure....but not over the top.
Like it a lot!

Rick Chip 11-20-2009 02:45 AM

Hi Jammo,

Thanks for the comment - yes so far it is the stock 3.2 MAF.

Thanks Doug

Rick,

Any chance for an update?

How is it running? Any teething issues?

Very, very nice and clean. WOW!

Thx.

Rick Chip 05-30-2010 06:40 PM

Hey 911st,

I have just had the valves adjusted at 1000 miles. After that I found out I have a miss at full throttle above 5000 rpm and I am trying to figure out what it is. I am going to pressureize the intake system and see if I have any leaks. I installed a 044 Bosch fuel pump so I do not think it is lack of fuel. Still trouble shooting.

Up to 5000 rpm the power is very intense.

Thanks,

911st 05-31-2010 07:55 AM

Such a nice job and clean install.

I like how the IC is a bit to the right to make room for the air filter.

Can who ever fabed the IC and snorkel reproduce thouse easly if some one wnated one?


I assunm you have a wide band on it. Is that telling you anything?

Did you go to 944T injectors?

Could your injectors be going on you at the higher pressure?

The best!!!

Rick Chip 05-31-2010 02:59 PM

911st

I fabbed up the intake out of 3" aluminum, i can give you a drawing of what i did if you like.

The vertical stack from the turbo to the intercooler is a GFS part as is the intercooler

No, I do not have a wide band on it yet.

The chip is programed for stock injectors, they are original and were fine, they may be the problem

Thanks,

911st 05-31-2010 04:13 PM

Just my opinion but you have way to much in this to risk not verify your AFR's.


Who is GFS please?

Dose the air filter tuck up under the parcel shelf so it dose not get rain directly on it?

Do you think the IC might fit under a duck tail or a 3.2 Carrera tail with limited mods?

Thx.

Rick Chip 06-01-2010 02:49 AM

I agree with you and it will be done. just no time right now

www.goingsuperfast.com

Yes. the air filter does fit up under the parcel shelf.

I have read of people doing it, I had a stock Carrera wing and had to change to a turbo wing for my installation

Rick Chip 06-01-2010 02:57 AM

Here is a link to Paul Rodelo's 930 with a duck tail

Thx Rick.

The best!

pirin911 11-08-2010 02:26 PM

Hi Rick:

Going the same route as you, as I have the stage I from protomotive and moving to stage II due to high oil consumption and smoking. My question is: Do you had to cut grooves on the heads to fit the C2T gaskets, or are they just sandwiched between the head and cylinder?
Thanks,
Francisco
