Hello everyone, I've just been made aware of this site that I had no idea existed from a helpful chap over at rennlist who suggested I look at Michael mounts NA projects with lots of power!!!!!

I'm from UK and have owned my 944 for 33 years, totally modifying in the process.
I love the older Porsches from 70's, 80's and 90's.

Lots of threads to catch up on!

Awesome, thanks for joining!! Looking forward to learning more about your car. The color alone makes it an interesting 944, but the sticker on the side suggests and very interesting motor!!

Thanks
Yeah, my car is definitely not for the purists , but a work in progress.
The engine is originally a NA 16V 2.5S , but now a stroker with a knife edged 3.0 S2 crank with JE pistons and forged con rods , S2 air intake with 70mm throttle body and Vems standalone ECU with coil on plugs , amongst lots of other stuff.
The colour is Porsche riviera blue

Welcome and Very Nice car with an interesting engine set-up. I think you will find the discussions here positive and helpful and there are VERY knowledgeable members willing to share. Be sure to look through the other Transaxle forums as well as many things cross over NA, Turbo, 4 valve iterations.
