I noticed that line, but was still not sure. The piping from turbo to IC looks so small...
Is this not restricting? I'm thinking of putting an IC on my 931 but haven't done so partly because the room for piping under or around the CIS unit is not big enough for the IC setup I have lying around and I don't want to use the former owners solution of a bump on the hood to get more space for the piping. I want to keep my lightweight plastic hood!
Perhaps I can go down in piping size from turbo to IC without major loss of efficiency? If it works for GTS it should work for 931 right? That would probably give me enough room to use the IC I have in the garage. _________________ www.patandracing.se |

My upcoming IC solution will probably take the route under the CIS somehow, feels good to se that the GTS can use small diameter lines to. It may not be the optimal solution, but nothing is ever optimal  _________________ 1980 924 Turbo

We had a 914 with a v8 this past weekend's track day. Was fun to have watched it pass me, er, and a lot of others~! I'm sure this car surprises others as well. _________________ '83 944 Track car.

Just found this thread!! Great stuff, purely beautiful Porsche at its best. Although I just have an 81 924 NA that is no where near a GT, I am quickly falling for these front engined Porsche's. I started out in a Boxster, then moved to the 964 that I currently track and drive at least 3 times a week and also have the 924 in various states of preparation for racing.
To the point: I had the privilege of going to the Porsche museum in Germany a few months ago and completely forgot that I had these photos, hope ya'll enjoy.
Plus the 924 prototype
And my favorite Porsche race car EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
