How to turbo your 944:

Step 1: remove your engine

Step 2: buy my turbo S engine for $3500 (I can provide you with intercooler, hard pipes, exhaust, wastegate, and computers for extra)

Step 3: install your new engine



For $3500, you get my engine (with a broken air box) - pics below, and below them are the engine stats and a video showing it runs.





















The engine has about 13k miles on it since a complete rebuild. It's a n '88 turbo S - M52 engine code.

Here's it's history since the rebuild:

115,263 miles, May 17, 2004, Rebuild engine
-New seals, gaskets and o-rings
-Copper head gasket
-New rings
-New rod and crank bearings
-New intake valves
-O-ring head
-Machine cam box with inspection holes for indexing
-Adjustable cam sprocket
-New timing and balance shaft belts
-New oil thermostat
-New turbo thermostat
-Flywheel lightened by 3 lbs and balanced
-New pilot, throwout and release fork bearings
-New throwout bearing guide tube
-New clutch hydraulic hose
-Thermal wrap on headers
-New spark plugs
-New O2 sensor

Then, oil changes at:
115,600
116,064
116,698
117,876 (with a retension of the timing belt)
119,227
121,779 (another retension of belts)
122,980 (new AFM, knock sensor and cycling valve)
123,738
124,651 (new water pump and thermostat)
125,773 (rebuilt K26/8, anneal copper head gasket, new belts, rebuild throttle body, new valve springs)
126,650
127,250
128,356

It's currently at 128,835 - mostly track miles.

The engine currently runs (see video) and makes excellent oil pressure - 5 bar cold, 3-4 bar hot at 6k RPM (on track), over 1 bar hot idling (in pits).





This has been a strong reliable engine. And here's my most recent dyno run - stock boost, with and without a lindsey boost enhancer (that will come with the engine):

Van, if that's coming out, what's going in? GLWS

Do you have an exhaust (cat back) for sale?

The car's bent from an accident... nothing's going back in

I'm buying an NA 944 race car to replace it.


No.

V2Rocket

87 944 C

would you by chance want an 87 8v for 800 bucks? sorry for the slight highjack, i havent taken any hostages tho nor have i demanded a plane for escape...yet

Van

For you Spencer, $4k. Seriously, I'm not interested in spending the time to take apart a good working motor - on principle and because I have too many other projects going on.


Would I want it? What for?

MM951

I'm working on getting Matt to snag this!

BTW: He wants those seats for sure, next time you are around shoot me a text if you still want to sell em.

Tempted for my 88na, but I really need to sell it to buy track parts for 968. Do you have any suspension, safety or other stuff for sale?

PM me if you do

Hmmm... very tempting.
