Hi, thought i'd it was long overdue I join after all the useful info from this forum in regards all things 944.

I've had a 944 turbo silver rose for 2 years now, I haven't had time to drive it much recently but keen to make the most of the good weather while it's here!

Based in the south midlands, it'd be good to come to some meet ups.

Cheers

Hi Dubya and welcome :D

Is yours a metalic red? If so, I believe I have seen it before at the Tipec show in Wellesbourne about 10 years ago

Hi Paul, there's a good chance it was, the previous owner had the car for 12 years and resprayed it an electric red over silver, think its a kawasaki bike colour. I like it but might return it to silver rose one day!
He did most of the mods but i've added a few since, its running a K27/6, MAF, 55 lb injectors, modified intercooler+hard pipes and the Janspeed decat. Runs well - just wish I had more free time to drive it!

Intersting on the kkk27/6 what's sort off rpm to find full boost and how much boost you running.

Its a Powerhaus K27-DR, imported from the states but they're long gone now. Some info here http://web.archive.org/web/20060329133721/http://www.powerhaus.com/944t.htm
Running 16 psi boost, full boost from memory is 3.5 - 4k. (haven't driven it for a few months) There's still a bit of lag but that keeps the 80's fun factor :)

How about you? I bet the gtx spools fast!

Thanks heard lots off 27kkk over on rennlist but no one real solid answers. At 1 bar in 5th probably 2.8rpm.

Very nice, I'm normally a bit of a purist when it comes to colours but that looks great! Liking the sound of those mods too, I bet it goes well :D

Welcome!
