They are out there, but if new/used ones don't sell then what is the point. Tony G had one for sale for dirt cheap in the turbo forum here and it took forever to sell.

a complete, five-cylinder, 3.2 turbo engine featuring zero German parts that doesn't blow up....

only to be swallowed up by the 944T sea [a.k.a.; the biggest junk car swap meet in automotive history]....

the more examples i survey, the more empirical evidence strongly suggests;

944/968 engines are scant little more than disposable engines.

it's astonishing how many big-money-in projects end badly,

or what racing programs based off this platform end up costing.

Vacuum manifolds... CPR V1 splitter... Cool wheels that are the right offset for '86 turbo's... 245/45-16 tires that are good and don't cost a billion dollars...
