Im really considering selling my 951 to a good home and picking up a 2003 C5 Z06 Corvette to turbocharge. What do you guys think?

Unless I don't understand math/logic, per your avatar you've already answered that question, no?

i would rather have a turbo ls1/2/3 in a 944 then a corvette

i personally will take the engineering and relative scarcity over just raw power... but sometimes you just have to have poooooooooooooweeeeeeeeeer!

have you seen the rear suspension of a C5 vs the 944? lol

I really like my 951 but lets face it, I could get about $5,500 out of it. I am far past the point of return on getting my money back out of it and I still want a lot more power out of it. I drove around a friends C5 Z06 (Long Tube Headers, Corsa Exhaust, Intake, Big Cam) and I was really impressed. I am just considering it for now, I may pick up a Z06 and keep the 951.

i get tired of "raw power" in my opinion the 944 chassis has a charm that just cant be beat. i live in a "car family" a4, corvette, gto, turbo mini cooper, mgb... and i enjoy driving the 924s more than any of them.

If anyone is interested Im tossing out a feeler. Ill sell my 1988 951 for $5,500 as is or $3,500 in stock trim. Send me a PM if your interested.

The clutch does not slip at all from a roll at 17lbs, but if you crank the boost up to 20lbs it will slip the stock clutch.

yeah you're right. i meant overall build quality but it came out engineering...

the c5 has one of my favorite bodies of any car...very sleek and sexy...can be made to look BAAD **** very easily...C5 in black with fixed headlights..yow.. not to mention reliability is solid
