    270 HP out of a 2.7L engine? I wonder what he did to it. That's pretty high-strung.

    How do you get 270 hp out of a 2.7, not to mention the heat exchangers.

    Since the factory got that out of a type 911/70 2.5L, it can be done, but I don't think this guy did what it takes. I think it's eBay hyperbole. A compression bump w/ 906 cams and twin plugs, plus headers and straight pipes and you could get there, but I don't see that on this streetable machine.

    It's single plug; it has zero chance of making that much power. 210 seems more like it...

    That is a question only the buyer can answer.

    What are peoples opinions on this car? To my untrained eyes it looks quite well done. The interior is not to my tastes but other than that it looks very tidy.

    Cheers!

    Too expensive for what you get, in my opinion. I get the feeling he will want more than $40K US. I'd rather have a very nice 'S'.
