I had always thought the name was a homage to the 356SC as the 911SC was expected to be the last version of the 911

My 83 is pretty super, 207hp, lots of torque, for a car this weight you don't need 500hp to make it super, what you needed was what I have the row version that wasnt full of emissions bull****...

The US version had 180 DIN hp (172 US). The ROW had 204 DIN (195 US). I for one could no longer live with a non-pollution controlled vehicle due to the stench.

A catalytic converter on a 200 nominal hp car 40 years ago cost about 10 hp. Current cat designs incur a negligible loss. If I still had this car, I would replace the old cat with a new 200cpi metallic

My favorite part of my 930 is the lack of cats... nothing beats the smell of oil gasoline and old leather!
