Default Ebay Find: looks pretty cool

Looks like it includes everything. If I had the money, I would buy it in a heartbeat.

It is just something I have never seen before for a 944. looks legit and seems to include everything needed to convert. A little pricey for me though. I would rather go with vitesse

For all the headaches that I'm sure would come with this, I'd just stick with buying a 951.

ah ya miserable nay sayer ... i like blowers but they are so damn expensive in so many ways .
they are double the price of the equivalent turbo make less power no easier to install and cost more cruising on the freeway .

Hey, I worked on MINI's for Years. Superchargers are great, I just like the surg of a good old turbo better. It may not be as fast even (enter eternal debate here) I just am just in it for smiles per mile.

That being said why not have both?!?
As long as some on else has to deal with headach of a double boosted Porsche
