Positive displacment units have been done on the on modern 911s, so packaging shouldn't be terribly difficult. I'm not sure why you wouldn't just buy a GT2 though? Sounds like a helluva undertaking. It'll be great to see your results nevertheless.

Keep us all in the loop on tire/wheel/fender fitment. Should be fun as well.
Why no gt2 I do not really like turbo charging and the gt2 will not be the car that the RS is. Will not know till I get the car about the flare. Yes the Eaton is really good. FI forced induction got it now. I love to shrug convention for my owne way and I like to gamble on me and my ideas. I build custom things out of wood and concrete in my factory. I will keep all in the loop and post pictures asap You guys rock.

jim,
when BRIANGG mentioned orange / black i assumed he meant orange car w/ black trim as opposed to black car w/ orange trim.
i should have clarified the scheme.
but most people would use the color of the car followed by the color of the trim.
unless they are from kentucky, of course!

My first post says black car and did not change just reviewed posts.

All of this orange black black orange sure we are not at the Harley Davidson forum.
