Saw this posted on the 944 board. Not sure if you guys visit there much, so I'll repost the ebay link

Didn't Sandaval Badge his that way? He had quite a few mods if I remember.

Yes, Eric Sandoval put the "S" emblem on his supercharged 968. His site is still active: http://www.968s.com/

My friend who lived in town had a 968 which he badged "S". He had the car professionally modded to produce 300hp w/o turboing.

I would love to know what he did and how much it cost him! I just bit the bullet on some turbo parts but 300hp without lag or complication is very nice.

He never gave me all the details (so he could have been exagerating) but he imported it from Germany. Supposedly it was all internal work (head, block, pistons)

Did Euro 968's have rear bumperettes?

Not that I'm aware of...300hp would be mighty impressive for an N/A....

No rear bumperettes on the Euro 968 to accommodate the wider license plates. The 911 is the same way.

I removed my rear bumpers, and made a plate to cover the holes. My cleaner IMHO.
