Smile ANYONE MODIFY THEIR MOTOR ON THE 958 TURBO? INTERNAL MOTOR WORK?
Just hoping that someone has modified their stock Turbo motor to make it more beefy from the inside out, including upgraded Turbos etc.

Just thinking out-loud over here.... Hummmm Considering all options.

Thanks for your replies,

Anything happening with Porsche and a replacement motor for yours that failed the Variocam bolt test?

Still waiting... I have a loaner 2017 Cayenne Platinum for now, not my Turbo but something.

I was thinking about maybe building a beast out of this one!!!! I just didn't want to reinvent the wheel if someone else has already done it...

Who knows, maybe we will dig deep and start!!! Would be great if we could get some kits going for others who are interested in gaining 200+ HP.

I wonder how the transfer cases would like 700HP+ going through them.. might start spitting them out like chicklets..

Well it's my understanding that the Turbo 911 cars are good for up to 1100 HP on the factory trans, so with this in mind I guess if we keep it under 1000 HP we will keep it safe.

Transmission X=X Transfer-Case. Different beasts entirely. But good luck with that, let us know how it works out.
