With new headers (being built), a GT4094R and 30 psi on E85 700 rwhp should be possible at ca 7000-7200 rpm with my engine.

If we can get 100 guys to pitch in $200 each I will find out for the cause of Rennlist
are you getting tired of the stock headers (!!!)?

Not really, but I thought this might be a tad more efficient solution

So what you're saying is if we spend enough money we could actually go back in time? Our very own time machine. That's Uber!

You forgot to mention they're great for towing a 928 as well, that's how you make a 928 fast.

A Cayenne with five passengers on board and towing a 10000lbs boat will out perform and out handle a 928.

Anyone know if Mark is still active in racing the 928?

You guys are getting silly.
I like 928's...especially the wheels.
They even look good on something with a little better power-to-weight ratio.

All I know is that there are better platforms and better motors out there to start off with for such goals. A turbo'ed LSx could get you in the 700s fairly easy, but that still doesn't mean you will be able to put that power down, let alone not break things.

I am actually surprised with what people on here have been able to get away with on an open-deck 4 cylinder.
Why?
Because its not there.
