Yes you can turbo your NA...
I've tried to help him with some questions he's had and be nice. It's just getting a lot harder to not laugh and be serious now that's he's posted pics...
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsc...ipe-turbo.html |
is this an old ferrari? lol
|
i really hope thats painted metal piping and not PVC like i think it is
**edit he said its pvc... |
jesus that thing looks awful
i like the idea of a remote turbo but **** |
well I'm going to stay away from that thread even though my name is mentioned ... ouch that needs some refining.
|
Wow I saw the first set of pics and thought "lol"
I just saw the rest of them... oh my.... I saved them just in case :p |
And curious cause I might have missed it when I read it the first time...
Boost and stock fueling???? |
I went ahead and posted for 2 reasons
..the idea using the sender is not a bad one.. ..and I would at least like to see him enjoy it for a few weeks |
I think he might be able to make it work - he obviously has a lot of work into it already...
The visuals though... you were good to overlook them... |
LMFAO:burnout:But at least hes driving a porrari
|
I am speechless.... F'n speechless..
And to think, you guys have been helping him / egging him on.. F'n PVC to a blow thru AFM... and I really like the idea of exposed electrical terminals on the fuel pressure sensor setup... and the idea of running a mixture of rubber and steel braided lines for oil circulation to the back of the car... I'm f'n speechless.... BWAHAHAHAHAHA |
OK..I even registered JUST to post that!
TOOLS...LMFAO |
besides the obvious, is that a grille off a ford truck?
|
You know it is obvious that his taste is quite different in the looks dept. He seems pretty young to me as well.
But.... if he truly can get some decent parts on there, and make some boost with a decent AFR ...would that not be better than a regular NA?? Especially with the condition of this car. I mean for real here ....if he can show 5 psi at redline and it holds together it would be considered a success would it not, even though the car needs mucho help?? Imagine this being a junkyard wars, drag race contest between 2 944's ..one being an NA and the other what he has..which is going to win?? Personally, I am looking at it as an experiment for other listers who have nicer cars and more $$ for better parts. |

Never found out where it ended up being delivered to :(
It's Ok though, I'll find one local. I am not going to ship to the shop anymore, as a couple of items never showed up over the last few months either. |
the tracking numbers had them listed as delivered to the given address...i kinda feel guilty...
|
love it. Please some one help him.

The side trims showed just not the center don't worry about it really..no big deal. |
porsche guys are the best. its too bad we get a bad wrap from most of the automotive community
|
LOVE IT! most entertaining read in months haha
|
Ok, I understand that he wants to make it faster and has done it from scratch.
But: Ferdinand Porsche is missing from his grave, He was last seen in Florida with a gas can and a lighter:roflmao:. I'm also wondering about his budget since silicone couplers are expensive, you guys should have told him about PVC Cement(cheaper and carried at any Homedepot).:corn: |
I'm trying really hard to keep from posting anything more on Pelica....logged myself off to resist the temptation.
So who else has a prancing horse in the middle of their porsche crest? He said that's where he got it from... |
|
Doh, mistyped...I meant to say "that prancing horse" since his horse is clearly a Ferrari emblem.
http://img.tomshardware.com/us/2005/...errarilogo.jpg Found his inspiration... the Porsche 599 http://www.sportscarcup.com/cars/fer...rano-front.jpg https://forums.pelicanparts.com/uplo...1256936934.jpg |
That is quite possibly the funniest thing I have every seen in my life. I kept trying to tell myself that this was some kind of joke, especially the bent valve repair.... Wow... well to each their own. He will blow a hole in a piston/ or break a ring land soon if he hasn't already done so.....
|
I got to give him credit for trying....
I even kind of like the front end treatment. BTW - I think the PVC will work just fine - and after the design is proven he can use it for a model to make a steel pipe version. |
Actually I do like that front end, the general idea is quite nice, it just needs some refinement:
Fogs ( round ones ) and blinkers behind that plexiglass and current fog light openeings converted to brake cooling ducts. Grille is OK, but that horse ( and that oval behind it )...oh dear. And of course GTS headlights should be added. Anyway that's a N/A front with some attitude! |

My mom made her living as an artist. Back in the 80s she was doing some slik screen prints and did the one below with the horse from the center of the emblem. "Porsche guys" would come in the gallery all the time and scoff, make fun and tell the gallery owner how the horse was a Ferarri horse and not a Porsche horse. They finally framed a Porsche emblem and hung it next to the artwork. People still complained until you pointed out the horse. Then they all thought it was very cool and the art sold out. (Keep in mind this is period specific art work). This is a digital photo of a picture of the silk screen print. The artist is "Mary Ford" (maryfordart.com) http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2741/...534c004f_b.jpg |
My wife and I read that entire thread on PP, and couldn't stop laughing. It was like Saturday morning comedy. I don't recall who said it on PP, but I agree, it's a total hack job. Initiative is one thing, a cheap monstrosity is another entirely.
And the vicious attacks on anyone that doesn't completely agree that it's awesome??? Well, that just shows you that he knows it's a hack job and is trying to get some credit. And WHY would he start over on PP?? That's just asking for abuse. |
what a ****ing tool..
honestly he has the grammatical grasp of a 7 year old, how many commas does he put in a single sentence? kind of want to put some money aside for a plane ticket to tampa now.. |
Being that I'm a psych major I feel I have the right to say:
This individual comes from a detrimental, opprobrious background. Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a serious mental illness. Please, dont bash on people that are clearly mentally unstable. We all know where his project is going. When to many things go wrong BPD patients become suicidal. My $.02 Waqqas |

This guy reminds me of a few people I know. Bright with ideas, but half-ass implimentation. Not to mention, that after the idea has been made into function, damned be the details and perfection, just as long as it works. He obviously won't ever care about the looks of the car, but he's tinkered the hell out of it. I do have to say though... I'm starting to like the open front look. Does kinda have a Ferrari Scaglietti or California feel about it. If someone with good machining and fiberglass skills were to mess around with that, they could totally change the look of the 944- Might I argue that it could look good? He just needs to clean that thing up. The remote mount is cool. I like the fact that he widened the car. Just isn't clean. Oh, now for my manditory contribution to the general consensus. Holy Christ those stickers and Ferrari emblem need to go away! |

Sorry I had to delay the saga - he's banned on Pelican till November 21st.
As much as I want to see how all this pans out, he needs to sit in the corner for a bit till his temper tantrum runs out of steam... -Z-man. |

LMAO! What a nasty car. I will pick my slow NA over that any day. I'd get smoked but at least my car wouldn't be janky.

Oh, and your grammar is perfect, is it? Did you know that sentences should start with capital letters, and that your third sentence has no subject? By the way, profanity is not allowed on Rennlist, so kindly stop!

That guy sounds like Allina with 'roid rage. jajajajajajaj!:biggulp:
|
Man, my wife and I laughed, but you guys have been BRUTAL!! I love it. New ideas are one thing, but there's really no excuse for a horrible execution. And besides, Porsche guys are definitely opposed to anything that resembles a hack job.
|
A little harsh, don't you think fellas?
Not saying the guy is not nuts, but seems to me not long ago alot of the same finger pointers were making some pretty stupid post themselves. :) |
