I read in a car rag that Porsche used finite element analysis and a buncha other computer stuff to engineer the 996 engine to the gnat's a**. Meaning they squeezed about all that could be aqueezed out of it then built in the durability JUST for that level of power. The car rag said you shouldn't really hotrod it even if you could.

Actually. That is not true. US citizens can federalize cars. The US DOT recently decided that if a private citizen wants to bring a car into the US, he only has to meet emmisions requirements. It used to be that you had to also meet rool over, window glass, bumper, etc. requirements.</STRONG>
