I'm a noobie..

I need help. I know Rock and I know you can put a trans in.. and some motor mounts. Maybe a whole aircooled engine.

I need a whole new car-, mine sucks. can you build one for me>>??

Can you come to Ohio to fix mine? I want to make my 924S into a 993.

I was thinking of putting a cummins twin turbo with water injection in my 944, to get some bottom end grunt and also benefit from lower fuel prices. My question; is this doable without altering the hood.

Use the "Search" noobie.... Everyone knows you can't put a Turbo into an NA.

Ask Andy - he tried, and....

And oh - "Welcome to Rennlist".....

Sure, just never try to install the hood!

I have a hood from an S-10- will it fit?

If yo pee enough will a 911 become a "watercooler"

There is a 911 RS America i wanted to buy and supercharge.

How can I get more than 212 HP?

Is removing the doors OK for PCA racing?
It's all about weight, right?

OK Crap is over. It's OK John. I'll be at 1 post for a while.

Maybe I learned... aircoolers CAN work on watercoolers.

You da man.

Did that work? Did I placate you?
