how much are you expecting to spend?

- buy a 951, not an S2

Why stop at 300? Why not 400 or 500??? Or how are you sure 200 isn't enough?

My point is, what exactly are you trying to do with the car that necessitates such power? Why do you think it's best done with a 924?

Even better - how much torque do you need?

Given that 100hp/L is a high number from a normally-aspirated motor... don't you think 1.5 might be pushing your luck?

Why do I keep fighting this feeling of deja-vu?
