I love the painted ruf's, looks like track tires, said he would take 18.5k for it... needs carpet and leather done... kinda feeling 14-15k for it... the motor was resealed..etc.. 5k ago... he said the boost is set 3psi

Sounds like a bad idea to me - the euro already has higher compression engine that's on the fringe of detonation (depending on gas octane available) Now you supercharge it to up the static compression even more?

Hopefully they shimmed the head up or did something to lower the compression before they installed the SC

If you want to make it haul.... The SC is the only way to do it. These engines are very strong and 6psi is nothing on these cars if tuned properly.... its all in the tune.

Go peddle your crap somewhere else. Go ahead, make a smartass remark and we'll see how long you're here.



Back to the car......I'd never, ever, ever buy a blown 911. Who the hell knows what was/wasn't done for the build. One failed part and you're out $10K plus, or potentially plus-plus.
