Seen this before I think, looks brilliant. Just need to be lowered a bit to get the correct look. What kind of spring/damper setup are you running? Rear roll over bar would make it perfect !Have you had it on the dyno ?
A GTS would be perfect to have in the garage besides my narrowbody 931  _________________ 1980 924 Turbo

The lights were just cheap fiberglass units I bought of ebay,I then totally reworked them,and made the lenses myself,and made adjusters for the helle light units,total cost was around £200 with the new hella light units,but I did remake them ,re gel coated them and got them to fit like a glove _________________ http://upfrontporscheclub.com/ |

never dyno,ed it but having had a few 944 turbo,s and 924 turbo,s my guess would be it ran at about 210bhp,maybe a bit more as the wastegate spring was changed to a 1 bar unit.The 944 intercooler,gives you about an extra 20 to 30 BHP _________________ http://upfrontporscheclub.com/ |

Ooo, 1bar should give it some real speed, depending on turbo of course. Do you know what turbo setup you have? Should be way north of 210, is it running fine at that boost, no knocking? Have you any measured AFR ? _________________ 1980 924 Turbo

The car was stripped of everything that was not needed,and the reaswon it is sitting so high is it lost about 200KGs,It ran fine with the 1 bar boost,and also had a carbon fiber induction,The car was very fast
