The Welt chips only gave 40 hp on a "S" model, that's it.


Something got messed up in the transportation of information, here. You can't get 300 crank hp with the above described configuration.
Messing with race gas and air/fuel ratio will do nothing.
If you say you get an increase of 4 to 5 % with race gas and optimum advance, I would say that is healthy. So that's 10 horses.
An increase of 5% VE from the modded exhaust, I would say that's in the cards. So, that's another 10 horses.
Changing duty cycle from the cycling valve, in conjunction with less back pressure could possibly allow the boost to be maintained at 11 psi to redline. Maybe, this is considered still stock boost since it didn't "go over" 11 psi. ONLY IF this was allowed that would be another 30 horses.
So, the best case scenario, I'm gettin' 270 hp.

Well throw in custom headers and exhaust and really good shop?

Yes 217 bhp stock vs 300 bhp That is about 80hp.

Hey read this quote and understand why I can posted this. (note F Class 951 is a K26/6 car with stock everything including boost. Prepared allows chip, but no change in boost)

That car would be very very fast in D and hardly fair. BTW a prepared 951 in E class at 2899 did low 2:12's at WG this year while most of us D drivers were in the 2:13's. Now imagine that car 289 lbs. lighter at 2610. Ok how about the prepared RSA in C class running at 2760 lbs. that would now have to race against a C class US Cup at 2486 lbs. That would not even be close.

According to the PCA classing a Turbo cup as 250 hp in D at 2770 lbs. Also boost must remain stock. Where is the 300 hp coming from?
Most 944 Turbo's can get 300 hp, but not by using stock boost.
His response to that.

The F class 951 can be prepared to E class legally with a chip upgrade that puts out nearly 944 TC hp. I don't know what the boost numbers are and neither does anyone else when you go to these races. You just know that it doesn't seem right that they are pulling you.

Just as I expected a 300 hp "stock" motor 951 is not really stock at all.

Uhmm, can I toss in another factor? Replace wastegate (legal?) And run "stock" boost to whatever redline.

I know that the 26/6 runs out of steam, but I think that the factory wg bleeds off a ton of boost before the turbo compressor becomes the real issue (based on my dyno runs Tial vs. stock)

It's just a suggestion, but I'm still very doubtful.

I doubt you replace the stock waste gate with anything other than factory new part. Same specs

Yeah, I realized that after posting. Have a proctologist check you out, I think you might find some smoke, courtesy of your 300 hp buddy.

Couple things here:

First, all the 964 Carrera Cup guys had to run in D class with the 944 Turbo Cup/Escort cars - so of course they will claim that "those other guys are running 300 bhp!" Now that the Euro 964 Cups and some of the USA 964 Cups are running in GTC1, most of those complaints and claims will probably disappear. Plus there are only a couple 944 Turbo Cup/Escort car that participate in PCA Club Racing.

Second, for the stock class, the chips must be what came from the factory. So what chips did a 944 Turbo Cup or Escort car come with? The US Escort cars came with 3 sets of chips from Porsche Motorsport North America. An ecomony chips for endurance races, a medium power chips for sprint races and a high power chip for qualifying. So which set is PCA "legal"? If you had all 3 sets, which one would you put in for a race?

The old PCA Club Racing rules had a note by the Cup cars that stated boost was limited to 1.0 bar (which is gage pressure or about 14.5 psi boost). And it is my understanding that the scrutineers still check and enforce this old rule. So you can get some pretty good power running 14.5 psi and an aggressive ignition advance (the one Escort car that I know of runs 100 octane straight). The 87 Escorts and the 88 Canadian Turbo Cups all had the k26/8 turbocharger.

Yes the listing shows only 250 bhp for the Turbo Cups, but it also lists 247bhp for the Carrera Cups and they are making in the 270 range or more. And I know that most of the well prepared club race cars in any class are making well over the published horsepower figures both legally and illegally.

And I will also say that I have seen two Turbo Cup cars that definitely were running a lot of power, to the point that it was obvious they were cheating. Well beyond what the "stock" turbo Cup/Escort chips and 14.5 psi boost would putout.

Also, most of the Escort and Turbo Cup cars were professionally raced in various series and venues after the Canadian Cup series and SCCA Escort series were over. Some ran in the IMSA races at Daytona and Sebring in the early 90's. This also includes the Euro Carrera Cups (including Le Mans). Who knows what all was done to these cars to make them competitive by pro teams. So when these types of cars show up to a PCA race, its anyones guess as to how legal they are.

anyway. if i remember correctly he had 260-280 rwhp with just a chip.
but maybe he was running more boost. i cant remember to well.
all i know is it was a chip...and thats it..and he was making rediculous amounts of power (so everyone said) for a k26/6
Ehh...I've NEVER done that...I got setups for 200+hp NA's without too many mods. And building an NA to be turbo converted running loads of boost on pump gas...but that's a fully built engine. And,I don't chip things...I go stand-alone,to get ALL settings spot-on.

I really don't see how a stock 944 Turbo with stock boost can reach 300HP. Also, weren't the Turbo Cup cars basically a Turbo S? It was my understanding that the Turbo S was built to match the Turbo Cup specs. As to running race gas, that's really not going to make much difference on a stock car unless you are turning up the boost.
