That Mittelmotor car is more like GTS spec and has 310hp+ with custom pistons/cam, solid lifters etc.
Shows how good these cars can be. _________________ 1979 UK 932 |

Nice to see these cars flexing a muscle
His video made me remember when i drove my 924 there.
I was certainly not as fast(i think i did 11mins+)...but now i got the itch to drive it there again since i have the new brakes, new suspension, new turbo and new gearbox  _________________ Supercharger and EFI kits

| That guy really knows the Nordschleife. He set up for a couple of turns and I was thinking whut the..., then he turned in, hit the apex *exactly* right and off he went. One of the best lines I've see on the NS. Sehr gut. |

Thats pretty quick, before schwedenX he had 246 Vmax compared to 204 when I drove there. Pretty big difference in power But I braked much later though  _________________ 1980 924 Turbo

The description clearly says it has GTS spec engine under its hood and at 1.3 bars of boost (HUD shows data) he should be well past 300 hp.
It means the car has to be fast  _________________ '83 924 2.6 16v Turbo, 470hp
