Sports button to open a valved exhaust is a great idea! Feels very oem. Definitely do rods and pistons and go for 700whp! This is one of my favourite car builds on RU-vid, can’t wait to see how it evolves 😃
So you know, they sell filter socks, they're extremely tightly knitted mesh "socks" that fit over your air filter, they have hydrophobic coatings so water doesn't soak your filter, and you can literally just blow off the sock from the bottom (or take it off and blow it out), keeps your filter cleaner much longer and doesn't effect airflow or anything.
@@cartermassey2316 and some Audi V8s too, I believe. If I remember I'll look up and link the guy building the Roxster. Pretty cool, but I'm holding out for a Honda.
Love this take of a better more reliable engine, more powerful etc. I think a heat shield for the air filter would be neat, not only because its next to the exhaust but also it could help it be cleaner for longer.
Great update Nick!! Super great looking car! Regarding the build evolution for stage 2, I say do it right with a built motor once you push it up. You already have such high quality parts on such a well done 997, go the built route as in the end, it'll still be cheaper than a used 997 Turbo S motor, but making more jam.
Push the stock motor with an upgraded fuel system. Zero point financially going with forged internals. You should be able to push that motor to 700 stock with a good tune and some fail safes. Seeing how far these motors can be pushed is very interesting.
I’m guessing he wants a reliable 700, not a “it’s fine someone on RU-vid’s managed 700hp for like 100 miles on stock internals without blowing it up, it can totally handle it bro” 700… If car manufacturers could get a reliable 700hp from an engine of that capacity without forged and updated parts, they would… However they don’t.
You watch utube and see 600hp and 700hp k24s but u don't see.how many time is spent rebuilding them after a couple dozen pulls. 700 hp is possible but not reliably
@@Jonathan_Doe_ That comment is just ignorant. The motor he used is cheap, if it blows he can replace it with forged no big deal. Apprehension and fear come from your lack of experience.
@@Wheemer it’s not ignorant at al.. it’s called having common sense. How far do you suggest pushing it without checking Ring Gap Mr Pro Engine Guru?? A trip to the machine shop some Rods and Pistons and spending $3000 is better than trying to impress Jabroni’s like you.
You look like a genuine guy who wants to talk while walking around the car but maybe it’s worth to script your videos so you won’t be repeating the same things over and over. Beautiful car and nice implementation of k24 swap! Please cut the zip tie ends at the very minimum or buy some Porsche brackets to make it look clean. Additionally you can relocate your air filter higher up to breath clean and fresh air from the air intakes under the wing.
You could use a defcon epoxy to fill the space in between the sleeves and the block , it helps hold more power , maybe upgrade pistons or use oem pistons from other k series that are known to hold more power , you can port the heads or do a k20 head
I think the Z7 head works just fine with this build. The 4piston guys proved that this head can make power. Packaging a tubular exhaust in the 911 engine bay will be tricky if done a 4 port route is taken.
@tuningbynick just happened to come across your channel, this video of the K swapped Porsche got me here. New subscriber. Noticed your from Ontario too. I live in the Niagara Region. (St. Catharines). Curious, do you also have an awd dyno? Thinking eventually I will make my version of a Cadillac Escalade V with my 05 Escalade ESV Platinum. And eventually will need to dyno. If you do not, do you know of anybody within a couple hours of Niagara? Thanks in advance. Cheers
@@tuningbynick thats really cool. I love honda and only like porsche because of their driving feel and interior. As a German a 911 with k20/k24(turbo) would be one of my dream cars beside a lotus exige k20. I will be moving to Ontario in January, maybe we can meet sometime and talk to each other in person. Your project is one of the best car projects imo. Do you intend to use the porsche on track? btw nice integra
Drop it down to a G25-600 for a significant boost in response. Hell, a G30-900 would help, and still retain the maximum cold side flow that you have now.
…And go through the hassle of a breakdown (which can be pretty hairy/dangerous in a rear engined car if the engine locks up) and pulling the engine again. Think he’s better off getting it done right the first time. It’s a Porsche, not a civic.
Im so happy that you are in Toronto because im moving there soon , i saw the car and i think its worth it , my only concern is , can this car be daily used 😮❤
I’m handbuilding a k24 with rods and pistons. Going for 300hp NA high compression for a BRZ. Do you really want the extra head ache of building a motor? Don’t fix something if it’s not broken
Honda NZ says the k24 / k20 spark plugs are good for 100k kms. My friend has a 2000 honda stream with a k20 in it and that is on factory plugs at 340k kms. only fixed vtec oil leak, never done anything to that car.
No cruise control for a cruising car? Don’t try and keep up with the jones. Do you enjoy driving it, why try to make more power? Fix the little issues and look forward to driving it.
Do you make a K24 kit yet? Saw you on some other video where you mentioned plying that angle. Still on board with that? Push the stock more to find the limit for people interested. Then go to a beefier engine.
Hey there nick! I have a 997.1 2005 i had it rebuilt, bored to 3.9 offset pistons, larger oil cooler, third center rad, 3.8s clutch, 3.8s program, 3.8s airbox, cooler thermostat, pinned the cams, machined the heads , new springs and valves, machined the block, new starter, new Bosch alternator, new coils, plugs, water pump , all new high capacity roller bearings, new gas cap, oil cap, fuel pump, one way check valve etc.. one problem though.. sometimes when i start it, the rpms either jump up and down until the air conditioner kicks up the rpm.. or it just stalls out and i have to restart it and use throttle control to get it to the high idle.. any ideas as to what to check?
