I got my 944 delivered this morning at about 8:00 am. MY GOD IT'S FAST!!!! I talked to the builder and he said he drove it enough to get a good start on the break in. His thoughts were drive it like you stole it, so I did, several times. After figuring out the shift timing I took it on...

Today I received an unsolicited e-mail from my builder. He said the new ECU is now working the way it is suppose to and the car may be shipped out in 3 days. He may be the best 944 wench on the east coast but this probably means 3 to 4 weeks because I am not sure his time line and mine are the...

I am still waiting for my car to be done. We were in Florida 2 weeks ago and stopped by the builders shop and while not ready to send home it was ready to test drive. When he started I told him to build it like he would his own, as part of that he ordered a special ECU set up and it wasn't...

I got word today that my 84, 944 will be completed 4/20/13. Around the 1st of May I'll head to Florida to pick it up. Ann will drive the van and I'll break in the 944 on the way home. We've got a tow rig on the van in case we need it, but I'm an optimist, we won't need it. This is an 84, 944...

I wonder if a small, light, remote turbo could be added to a conventional set up to over come low end turbo lag. Have it light enough to start spooling at around 1500 rpm with 5 to7 psi to produce boost before the main turbo spools up. Now, if this is feasible will the remote need to run at the...
