Default 944/944S/944 Turbo Technical Spec books online?

Hi gang -

In my endless quest to gather up as many Porsche specs as possible, does anyone know if there are copies of the Porsche technical specification booklets for these cars online somewhere?

Thanks,
-Mirror

I think he might be looking for the tech specs not the shop manuals. There is info not shown in the manuals. I have 86 pages of specs scanned in pdf (3800 kb) but they are from the colored original paper making them look sort of ratty but legible.

Yep, I've found torque specs for stuff not in the FSM as well as engine coding by model year. I use it for a quick reference for torque values all the time.

Once again KuHL, you've come to my rescue. That's the stuff I'm looking for. I'll send you a PM.

It is available through any dealer. I was always given one from the factory depending on what car we were studying. They have part numbers and are available through the dealer, but they will have to look it up specifically. I don't know if PET will list it under literature, but it might be worth a look. If you have done any work on a Porsche without one of these, you probably did something wrong. They are a wealth of information and will give a lot of technical insight into the cars you may own or be working on.
