It is stock with 160 bhp but l know it can be a lot faster. It is an automatic (ugh) and its a 4 cylinder. if you know about Porsches then you know this is the last year they made it and they put the 2.5L engine from the 944 in it. if you have any advice or practical solutions (i'm 16 so not completely car savvy) just post them up

turbo off a 944

an auto. 4 cyl porsche?




hahahahahahaha


damn, still better than what l got.

You need to think this over. Any speed equipment for a 944 engine is very very expensive, & a 924S is never ever going to be worth very much. So u will be putting a lot of money into a car that will not pay u back.

However, if u must do this, u can gain a little horsepower with a cold air intake system & a free flow exhaust system. At any rate it will sound a lot better & that is fun, too.

The only 944s that really go fast r the turbos. If l were u I'd save up for one.

l would do a web search and join a Forum for that car. The forums usually have people who have and worked on your car. l think the quickest way would be buying a totaled 944 Turbo and swap everything including the wiring and computer(s). Take lots of pictures, notes..get a manual, but most of all hook up with people who have worked and love the car you have..learn from their mistakes!
Good Luck

first get an air intake because it will bring in more air an givin you more hp and mpg and also it will sound loud without a dual exuahst then when you get that, save your money to buy a better engine. Trust me on the air intake system dude SO GO BUY IT!!!!

Add a turbo or NA, a turbo intake (those old cars need them standard is not enough), and you could add a sport muffler.

take it to a car store:P

Hi, in answer to ur question. l would sell the car & save for the car u really desire. The reason being.. l have been a Porsche mechanic for 34 years, l have worked on nothing else. The 924 was the worst car in terms of resale & performance, the 924S was a little better due to the fact they ran the 944 engine, giving more reliabillity, better fuel economy & driveabillity with the Motronic ignition & fuel system making it streaks ahead of the old CIS system. The down side is u can not rebuild these engines & increase horsepower unless u r prepared to spend allot of money, then u would do, cylinder head mods, camshaft, pistons, headers, fuel injectors, air flow/filter system & then the rest of the exhaust system. Now after u decide that this is the route u will take, u will have to consider the fact that u have an automatic version, they performed poorly with extremelly slow response & acceleration. So u would be wise to change the pedals, clutch, flywheel, bell housing, shifter, torque tube, & transmission.. so after adding all this up its going to cost u an easy $10-$15 thousand dollars & possibly more, So as a Porsche engine builder & race car builder l do not recommend anything for this car. sell it & save up the money for the Porsche u really desire. l build engines for customers ranging from full race to street & non turbo to Twin turbos etc etc & the price ranges from $15,000 to as high as $60,000 just for the engines.. so take the advise & learn, l am 49 years old & l have seen many people do what u want to do & then they really regretted it. l hope this helps you, do not feel discouraged. You should be grateful that people here r actually giving u good advise, u will save allot of money, time & hassel by heeding these comments. You r young & u have lots of time.
