Scam-areno, my friend. First the price is too good to be true. Plus, I don't recall anyone randomly throwing a turbo on a 993. Most positive boost projects I've seen have been of the supercharging variety.

No matter what this car/ad is, the mention of a BAE turbo kit made me shudder. Be thankful most every one of you here came into 911s after those abominations were long out of production. Finding this photo brings back Porsche PTSD.

That is exactly the type of deposit you should send.

With stock cis go with a 964 cam grind and SSI heat exchangers. That is modest cost compared to some other things.

Yeah, there are your bolt ons. What's the budget?

Our Spec 911 engines running 9.3 compression/stock cams/1.5" (yes, purposely restricted) headers WITH a good or fantastic intake seem to provide 255-265HP.

Good = 46 Webers
Fantastic = Throttle bodies + plenum intake + Motec

(They may be getting more than 265HP this year. I haven't talked to my friend who's competitive in the series to see what's what.)
