[QUOTE=MATTYLITE;10797169]Hello Cayenne community,
Just wanted to let you all in on a 914 build to remember. This car was initially thought out on a napkin sketch, and has slowly been coming to life. The idea behind this project is simple, how would Porsche go about creating a 914 cup car today? Well, hopefully when the build is done, it'll meet our racing derived expectations that only a manufacturer like Porsche could (re) produce.
Brief Technical Specs (will list more as the build progresses):
-1974 Porsche 914 fully assembled by MSDSinc.
-Cayenne V8 TT 5.0 litre, derived from 2010 Daytona Prototype engineering, built by Lozano Brothers Porting (1000 / 1100 whp)
-Porsche 996 GT2 Transmission, built by California Motorsports
Some of you may ask why, we asked why not?
subscribed to this thread......I like its already happening.

I'm going to go on record as someone asking why. That transmission looks amazing.
Since I don't know - how much does a cayenne turbo engine weigh? I'm assuming it is more than a 996TT motor.
Won't that much power be too much for the chassis?
I'm a doubter but I hope it works out. It is a cool and adventurous idea.

Here is a BIG update that we're very happy to share with you all. This has been several months in the works, and have finally arrived. Forgeline Motorsports set us up with a set of their GT Style Centerlock Long Nose adapters. They are Carrera GT inspired, red per the driver side, blue per the passenger side.
