Nice. Looks like it's got the lights from my previous performance car:

They were allegedly inspired by his wife's bottom. He probably didn't tell her though.

You are probably right. On a Swedish site Jonas is writing he has installed lights with Xenon from a Fiat Coupe. It sure is a cool license plate on your car.

The headlights of the 928 is iconic. I would never have touched it. I think that sort of ruined the car but other than that it looks mean.

Default WoW!
Jeez what a ton of work! That's incredible, do you know what the size of the turbo is?

Not citing compensation or anything, but maybe getting the ducktail spoiler a little blue pill would lessen the need for the pedestal mount! (j/K)

A little surprised at the door mirror choice, but I sure look forward to one or more vids of that car in action!

Car looks impressive.
Agree with CapeCod on the mirrors. Need to be a little more robust.

Thanks!
FYI, the car will be registered as custombuild 2016.
Turbosize T4 and from a V8 diesel Volvo truck (I talked to Volvo, they said midsize). Ok spoolup at 2700 rpm.

Must be a heavy hit when it does come to life!

Do you happen to have the map for it?

Great looking car. I think the 928 in track form is a formidable looking beast. Low, wide with big bulges in the flanks. Any concerns about track reliability with a turbo? These cars seem to do okay with naturally aspirated engines I just haven't seen or heard of many turbo cars able to endure racing.

I love the look. The back end treatment of the dual exhaust is magic.

Great Stuff,

Mirrors? What is going to catch a turbocharged 5 litre 928?

Love the build, I hope he enjoys it.

Nice! Would love to see how he did the exhaust for a forward mount turbo. Very interesting.
