With this as a baseline, the PO told me recently that he 'gave it away'.

The description is also a bit misleading, in that the car up to around 2005 ran a stock 2.5l with a larger turbo and MAF. All of the race history used that engine. The current engine was built after that, and to my knowledge has never been raced or run beyond a few test and tune sessions.


What is the story with this car?
Bought in April and now its for sale??

What motor is in the car now? Its history? Lap times?

Nice looking, well put together car!
I just started dialoge with Ivan for my upcoming rebuild.

Have you had a rebuild or major engine work done with him before?

it is a lot of hp for 2.5 liter, but i have no way to confirm size ofthe engine, unless i take head down.
And also i can not confirm that there is 448 HP, discription on the car is from PO and he did not provide any dyno sheets
I have another 944 turbo with 2.5l and hybrid turbo k27/8 and it did make 335 rwhp, so with bigger turbo it will make somewhere around 380-400 and then you need seriouse head work, cams, air intake manifold, headers and list go on....
