Nice. I thought I'd seen that still listed a while ago but lost the link. Pretty cool. I imagine they've still got a few of those kits lying around that they're trying to clear out. I could call 'em and try to find out what they'd want for one or heck, maybe I'll make a day of it and go down there just to check it out - if they allow me in their parking lot in my "lowly" 944.

The value of those parts shown is about $5,500 give or take. I imagine they MIGHT take a little less just to get rid of the parts but to get installation done, you're probably looking at $10K or so.

Thanks for the compliment ck. I had a good time and most importantly I learned a few things. Wish i couldmeet up with a turbo guy soon who might be able to diagnose my boost problem. Sure wish I coudl have seen your white 944. Good luck on the new project.

Yea it might be a 2.8L stroker, but what else is done to it? How much HP can be pulled from a 2.8L engine with everything else stock? 300RWHP? Thats the most i've seen from an AFM. (I think tony G might of made 415RWHP, Myswiss will have to confirm). Correct, the car might have chips and a banjo bolt set for 15psi, but no where does it state that.

For the Record, I was actually asking the owner what else was done to it. From the picture I made a vaild assumption. A 2.8L engine with everything else stock. I see no visual signs of the average upgrades, MAF/MAP, accuboost, FPR ect.

No offense to the owner of the car. Just a visual assumption, a very logical one at that as well.

God forbid...300 reliable RWHP. Sometimes "stock" is better.

They have not written off the 951 yet. I just bought a set of 104.5mm 944 turbo pistons from them.

Edit: Wes, study up on Andial and their history before dismissing them. They are the real deal.

After reviewing the receipts it looks like parts and labor for everything I listed in the first post was approximately $11,000. The engine by itself was $3,195.

And yes the Andial guys are arrogant and dont want to talk to you unless you are giving them your money but there is absolutely no doubt these guys know what they are doing and if you want some serious work done thay can do it. I will go down there with the car eventually and see if they will at least take a look at it and fill me in on some of the details.

For some reason, all of Andial's products make cars spit flames like someone eating Habanero peppers without water....

Wes, it is about TQ. The 2.8L is MUCH more torquey.

Andial sometimes has a tough time supplying the parts for the Stroker Kits.

Yes, internet did exist in 1998
