Nice monoblocks on the GT3. When does this bitch run?

The 928 will be fired up about the same time as the GT3 RS will be complete.
Everything is pretty much hooked on the top, more work under the car to be done. Install/fabricate wastegate line, oil scavenger line, turbo water feed lines, and a bunch of tiny wiring and then back wrap alternator belt.
Enough to keep the front wheels on the ground when he launches, mostly.
LOL. There is that. But, more weight in the back and some stiffer springs will be useful once the front settles.

That's surprising. Not sayin' it ain't true. Just about half of what I would have guessed though. Turbos, tubing, heat exchangers, fluids of various viscosities, pumps, fasteners. It all adds up.
Then again, I'm about 40 lbs lighter myself compared to the previous iteration...
Your posterior is closer to the center (pick your favorite: pitch, roll, inertial yaw, etc.) of the car than all of the above bits.

Did you find the error in the instructions yet? <... evil laugh ...>
