Evo Mag: Parr Cayman Turbo
Discussion
Good suff - Thanks for the info chaps.
9M a supercharger conversion putting out the same power sound very interesting.
Being centrifugal though, I assume the power and troque curves would likely look very similar to Casey's conversion.
It's certainly a lot of power for the money and, despite them being very different cars, when the cost to upgrade is less than the cost to change to a 996/7T it is very tempting.
I have been looking at NA 3.7 engines and the cost differential is probably worse for the upgrade so it is not really sensible to do it while I have a running 3.4 engine. If it was to blow up though (I hope not, touches wood) then things would obviously change.

I agree with Steve R, while it is fun to mod cars, the quoted cost is often just the beginning (soon you will be into suspension, brakes, uprated intercooling, further mods), and most mods will involve other compromises. A GT3 instead (or a 996/997T) is on the face of it a better idea.
