My new turbo

[Mike_Pollock]

Best early offset are the Fuchs IMHO

Cookies are great but not done in 16" dia or 8" rims I think.

I will be trying hard to resist the tuning route, don't want to get carried away now []

Thats what they all say in the beginning []

Very nice car

It would look even better with a set of 8" & 9" body-coloured Fuchs

Well done mate

i have a set of cup 1's available if interested, also a burgundy club sport wheel if you are that way inclined.

Get mick to paint those sills!

PS did the main man from playboy own the car in the past?

I agree....[]

Just give in to temptation and call Andy at Promax to get her booked in[]

CSs for me on a turbo although the Teles are nice as well. I have 6, 7 and 8 inch Fuchs here for sale if anyone would like to buy some. Also picked up a set of forged CSs today for a late turbo today which will be up for grabs.

Agree, CS 's are great on late offset cars

 

[Frenchy]

Fuch, Cup 1, the Turbo Tele's, and CS on later offset cars in that order for me, twists look wrong ...............sorry !
Maybe selling my 220, it is a good un, spread the word peeps.

Bad Man for selling your Lux, [] and such a nice one too

S

It was a good one. New owner works for Octane Magazine so you will see her around again []

Cup 1's would be tempting for sure Elliot but I think I'll live with the TD's for a while yet and will be popping in to see Mick about the sills - they need to be body colour very soon!

So, where's the local Tuners-Anonymous meet then []

I just got some black graphite CS 16 wheels for my 90 T locally - havent fitted them yet but i had to have them because i sold my last set to someone and regretted it the moment he drove away.

For me its CS forged then Cup 1's then Teledials in that order.

Have fun mate

Black CS - Nice! [8D]

Standard 26 year old Turbo = bad lag, horrible car to drive []

Lightly tweaked 26 year old turbo with no vacuum leaks, DP wastegate, 3 bar FPR and chips for 1 bar boost = VERY GOOD INDEED [8D]

Congrats on the purchase Andy, you seem to be getting through the full range of 944 in double quick time []

 

[Hairyarse]

I have Paul, although no plans for a cabby so that's it now. Have to say I did think a lot about keeping the square dash and making a few choice mods, but the turbo thing had to be done!

TBH I've been really pleased how this one drives and surprised at the lack of lag - not that I'm a pro at this turbo malarkey but did expect a lot more lag!

 

[PSH]

The 86 (220) turbo has the smaller KKK turbo that has less lag than later cars and in fact makes it faster on the road although slightly slower 0-60 and top end. Do as Paul suggests and you'll have a very fast car indeed..

[944 man]

I believe that even the K26/6 cars lag is pretty bad. Compare it to a TD04 equipped Impreza, whichll pump enough air to make about 320bhp, way more than a KKK at 290bhp and they acceperate immediately off the throttle.

Making a 944 Turbo go quickly invloves checking RPM, boost gauge position, astrology and slide rules!
