new motor for my 996GT3


Recommended Posts

i've been thinking that the motor in my GT3 is a little underspec'ed. I came across this bad boy motor today and thinking that I may be able to just shoehorn it into my 996:)

This motor stands at a fraction over 7 foot tall. Those turbos must be about 50 cms in diameter. It's a V16 that puts out 2000bhp and almost 6000 lb. ft of torque. Having a displacement of around 50 litres I reckon it would be very cheap to run:) I'm used to the current motor in my GT3 revving to almost 8000rpm so it may take a bit of getting used to if I drop this in my 996 as it only revs to around 1900rpm.

Shame they couldn't fire this beast up as I would have loved to have heard the whine on those turbos.
