I recently bought my first Porsche, it's a 1995 993 C4. I am planning on doing a twin turbo build. I'd like to make 600-700whp. Does anyone know of any build threads or what I am looking at replacing in order to build the engine. I figure aftermarket rods and pistons will be a must, aftermarket valvetrain etc. Are there any other modifications as far as reinforcing the block etc? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Here is a picture of its current stage with test fitting my suspension and wheels.
By the looks of it, parts aren't cheap. Lol it would be cheap to throw an LS twin turbo in it and make an easy 800whp.. But it just wouldn't feel right.
If your aim was 400hp, I'd say go for it but for 600-700hp you'll be spending a lot of $$$$$ for just the parts.
I have a +700hp race engine in my GT2...it costs 45-50k and refresh every 30-40 hours...
Here's pricing on the parts:
The conversion based on your present engine is the best solution although it is a lot of work and needs many parts.
