Dumbest thread this week. Even dumber than the thread on the Boxster forum about no one waving at them.

I love all porsches, and am embarrassed by idiots on both sides of this fence. My dad can beat up your dad, blah blah blah.............

Special Tool,

You can rest assured that M21's engine puts out far less than 395RWHP. You obvioulsy would have a higher peak HP number and a lower weight number than him so what are you worried about? Assuming that you guys aready do this kind of stuff, if are serious about visiting him for a "challenge", just do it. It would probably be fun for everyone. M21 seems to like drag strips and it would be nice if you would indulge him. I like the fact that it is controlled and legal (so I can condone a car contest). Best part is this all turns into friendly jesting among car enthusiast friends rather than a pseudo war of words.

Not worried, dude - just wanted to know the power

No war of words here - I am so happy to have a Porsche owner who is not "too good" to run a 1/4 mile with me!
I'm not saying ****!

I don't care if a 951 had 1,000 RWHP and did the 1/4 mile in 6 seconds. I'd still rather have my 928.

I agree completely. I'll bet the 911 guys are laughing their asses off seeing a 944 vs 928 thread.

To be more exact, the intercooler project added $ 80CDN and the used H-pipe another $95 US. The total is getting up there…………~ $1200.

One of these days I’ll have to return the HKS bypass valve that I’m borrowing for testing and buy one (another $100).

The website for the DIY 928 SC build will be up any day now.

Mulik - all my sheets have been posted.
I have posted every one with each mod and the difference it has made.
The pump gas one is on page 2 of the 395 thread on the 951 forum.

I don't know about E-town yet, M21 didn't say.
I am thinking abot April, if he is up for it.

Jim, here is your 533hp dyno for the unbelievers. 533rwhp and 472rwtq out a 2.5l engine that's efficiency.

Lart,

You really should change your name to Waylon Smithers.

Yeah, I'm 30min in the other direction. I'd come to check it out, might even bring the SC'ed 85 too.
