I like the part where the PO put in a nice customer leather job, then the recent owner took it all out - meant for street / track!!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

What month Excellence? I don't subscribe. I only get a copy when someone posts something like this. But it would be helpful to know what month we're talking about.

Yeah, that's what I always say "deff. to A dyno"....that way folks have no idea WTF I am talking about. Porshce was making 308 hp out of a 2.8L back in 19&72.....and it would run for 24 hours of racin'. Neet, eh? Lessee, it's kinda hard to figure....December, 2005. Is it Christmas season already? I missed Turkey day? |

With all the 914 stuff that has been in there lately, I'll always subscribe. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/aktion035.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) Mike you'll have to wait a week or two to get the latest copy if you don't have a subscrition. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) The Cayman article is outragious! They really make the connection to the 914! Way to go boy's! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif) You get a standing "O" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif) The styling is a little too 911 ish for me but the layout with the middle motor is as it should be. I'm starting the like the car. |

It's also nice to see that the 914 is actually mentioned in the
article on the new Cayman in the same issue! Dec. 2005. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) rezron |

Settle down big guy! All I ment was if I spent that much time & money into A 3.0 that I did or did not build into such a well sorted car I think I would spend the $ for A dyno. IMHO. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) |

Ah, now that makes sense. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
I've never had my engine on a dyno. I claim 200 hp. A good tuner with a dyno could prolly extract another 10hp....which is the only reason I would consider dynoing a engine. Prolly would cost me several hundred bucks. I can barely deal with what I have on an AX course now, so why....braging rights? Both the RS & RSR engines are recipe engines. Do this, stir gently, & here's your power......minus your own lousy tuning. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) |

Visited with the author (Peter Linsky, Portland guy) today at our local PCA annual "Rainbonnet" weekend. This car was on display there. It is to be featured in Excellence in the spring. Incredible car, built by Rothsport in Portland, commissioned by a Portland collector who also owns the Carerra GT in the pic. I once owned the tub ('74 light ivory 2.0), sold it to Craig Laughlin who sold it to its current owner. As you can see, he made some improvements.
