You went down under and stole OZ951's cam tower, didn't you? I knew it. Sneaky.

Mike can you explain it one more time for the dummies but what's this about going n/a? I feel like I've missed something fairly pertinent.

Until he builds his beast 951 motor he's dropping in an NA motor with a 968 transaxle in his turbo car.

Ok thanks Gabe. What's he going to run, 13:1 compression, rpm limit 10k, c/f panels etc? Just something to putter around in I bet???

The NA motor is just to get the car out and about, the same body and suspension setup as he had with the turbo motor, but just without the boost. He's doing the head work to get the compression up around 11:1 I think it was. Nothing special, just a bit more peppy than normal (throttle response work with the ITBs).

Ok at last count there's at least ? monsters out or due out this year. In fact the more I think about it...There's Paul and Nick from the U.K., then there's now Mike ( I didn't realize that he's doing one also) , Guns, Rolex, RKD, The Edge and I'm sure there are some more in the U.S. that I can't think of, then there's JET 2.7 S3, Thingo 3.? 968 RST, and me 3.0L (w super cfm's) down under + whatever the Nordic warriors come up with!!! Renaissance, Phoenix, these words come to mind. What a year ahead we have. I wonder if the original guys from Porsche that worked on the front engine, water cooled cars are aware of these continued developments? You would like to think that they are and it brings a wry smile and glint in their eyes!

Thanks Guns/333

The NA specs are:

2.5L
Euro NA Pistons
Stock tubular exhaust manifold (jet hot coated)
JME Cam
Individual Throttle Bodies
72# injectors (overkill, but it's what I have sitting around)
Tec3R
Balance Shaft Delete
Factory Tuned Lightweight Crank gear
Factory Tuned Lightweight Adjustable Cam gear
Shaved head
Spec 5 1/2# flywheel
944 Turbo Valve Springs (only thing I have yet to purchase if someone has a spare set sitting around)
968 6 Speed Factory LSD gearbox

The new Turbo motor isnt being worked on yet, but I assure you it'll make some serious power
