He has a regular 911 which weigh a little less and he has added lightweight flares to, and he is running fiberglass doors (and everything else) and probably I would think some kind of fuel cell to achieve such a low weight. You can see that the components in the dash are gone. That is my next step...
turboguy: Is the 2108 lbs with all fluids including a full tank of gas? What scale did you use? Just curious because that is a pretty low weight!

WAAAAaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaYYYY COOL!
Welcome! Congrats! Incredible build / execution. Loved the SLR story - that's not something you hear about every day (or the results heh heh). Keep up the good work, and keep with the sharing.
I'm sure someone by now has pointed you to the turboPALOOZA thread going on Pelican - REALLY would love to meet you and see that gem WOT'd through the scenic hills down thar yes! I'm pretty certain I'm speaking for everyone here heh heh.
Anywho...

So cool.
Sense it started out as a 911, did you put Turbo rear arms on it?
No worries about the 915 holding up? Must have done some bit magic there. I would think it would go poof with 500hp? Having a 915 is much of what is keeping me from turboing my Carrera.
Any reasion you did not build the 3.2 up as a turbo?
Again, such a cool car and one of the best incarnations of any Porsche.
