First, CONGRATS on the shoot!!!

But of course I have to bust your ***** a bit
Putting "In The US" was a good thing Alex .
I think the little old 993 C4S that this motor went into would give you guys a problem

I wasn't really gunna post it because I don't have any specifics on it, but what I can say is it made a 4 digit HP number back in 2000 It went into a 993 C4S and has since been detuned due to breaking AXLES and other components!!

Congrats Alex, I hope there is some "meat" (and I don't mean yours) and not the typical GT Purely Porsche style articles?

Evan,

You should tell us more! Let me guess, It is 993 N/A engine converted into a twin turbo. It has multiple TB butterflies, non KKK turbos most likely with external wastegates and a boost controller (see the hoses), no cats, twin-ignition and is pressure sensing, does not have a MAF. .. That intercooler does not look like a Secan core, it looks more like what I have from Protomotive. If it still has the stock N/A compression, it will have huge torque down low (and I mean HUGE), but somewhat limited peak HP.

See this is why I didn't want to post it, because I honestly don't know anything about the motor besides the numbers and pictures.... The motor made 1000PS when it was built back in 2000. Yes it was an N/A motor converted Twin (Just like the Cab. ***** brought over. If I had to guess it is KKK turbos as I have not heard of FVD DE using any other types (but like I said I don't know). I don't know about Cats, but I would guess it does not... The intercooler was custom made by MODE for this car, not sure why a Secan wasn't used, I am sure they had their reasons...
Sorry I don't have more info, I will ask ***** more about it when I see him next week!
