i have to admit it's pretty cool. would look best on a black car though b/c of that black framing around the lenses.

Yes I think it would look great on a black car....Sean? hehe
We will move the plate up but also thinking about venting that cross member behind to get some more air through to the i/c.
The coolant is only there as there was some work done on it the same day.
Yes the dogs are cool. If you need anything with 1000's of needle like teeth marks in it, just send it on down to Sean he can get that done for you!

they are sweet Griffen and Zapper are cool kids .
I'd be interested to see how lights would look with silver buckets inside silver behind clear is a good look for newer stuff like 350z and mercs if its not to hard to get the covers off you could cover them in foil stand back and have a look .
but you have embraced the lemans heritage with the 931 grills so may as well stick with the theme

LS1 one would be nice, but our local regulations does not allow to increase CC's that much. I visited yesterday a BMW guy here in Finland and he is dropping a 3.0L BMW V8 into his E30 bodied BMW convertible. That would be a nice (and leagal) engine to use if you would like to install a V8 engine into your 944.

Thanks T.


I love this setup Patrick! I have the same clearance issues you have with the I/C piping and light mechanisms as I do my induction. The GTS headklight kit would give me more options. I went from this setup, with the filter under the hood:



To this setup with the filter insulated and isolated, under the header, and saw a 30-50* drop in IAT's:



I think the GTS lights would give even more options.

Well so far so good. We still need to play around with a few things to make the hood fit better but the lights themselves have grown on me each day and they throw enough brightness at night even in this stock type form. I don't think I'll bother changing out the globes to brighter versions. Our air filters are down in the left hand front wheel guard so no heat issues. You've got tons of space up front with no i/c Travis so that new setup looks good.
