I just got a 1987 Porsche 944 non turbo. Ive been reading and it seems that making this car a Turbo is very expensive now i was wondering what i could do to make this car even more perfomance like. If you know a way to make this car a Turbo, for less any advice is well taken.

There are so many thing's that go into tuboing a car that isn’t I would say sell it and get a 944 Turbo if that's what your trying to get. Now there could be other things that wont get you as much power/money I have seen stoker kits for the turbo I think they make them for na to. Look in eurotuner and European car mag's for company's and visit their site's to find out more.

Look into 931's if you want a turbo. 951's get up there in the big bucks. But if you've got it it's your cash.

You can buy a supercharger kit for them, there are a few kits out there. They're pricey.

You can swap out the engine for a 944 turbo or a 3.0 DOHC motor.

I don't know of any turbo manifolds you can use with the 2.5 motor, might be able to modify a 951 setup to fit though, but it would be very expensive to start piecing together things.

Best bet is to get a 951/944S2, or get a 924 Turbo and spend some money upgrading. You can usually find a running 924 Turbo(931)for $2K-$4K. Convert to megasquirt and throw in an intercooler, and you should be able to make about as much power as a stock 944 Turbo, in a lighter weight body. If you get into fiberglass, such as flared fenders, you can knock off another couple hundred pounds.
