put all your money in that 4 cylinder ****-turd and 98.7% of you are gone from the forums within a few years. that's right. the black widow spider of the automotive world.... endless maintenance, electrical gremlins, repairs (from the normal to horrific), partial rebuilds, seemingly endless failed rebuilds and on and on.... few if any other cars can be so categorized as loved so much and yet kill off their owners with such efficiency as the Porsche 944.

That's definitely true, so I think all these measures like a better camshaft, headers, MAF, etc.., will make the car more fun to drive as it already is.You can just exploit the whole potential of the car and basically keep it as it is, a 25-30 years old 944 N/A.

I take it you've never made the 928's acquaintance?

Threads like this are why my TV viewing has virtually ended.

I don't do the work on my car for performance purposes. I do it for THERAPY and to keep it looking good and on the road. I love this old unpowered, sweet handling piece of art.
