Coincidentally the horsepower figures for an '87 930 Turbo and a '96 993 N/A car are identical, 282 with a little extra torque going to the turbo under boost. What I did not like about the 930;

-It felt wheezy unless in boost
-Unpredictable nature of when boost hit
-I had it made out in my mind to be more than it was or possibly could be if that makes sense
-When comparing it to the 993 it plain sucked to drive, 993 is more substantial and solid feeling (that may of been the two particular examples)

You hit pretty close to home with...."That turbo motor and the four speed makes it a really different beast. "

I guess I'm getting old and soft lol..........:ah:
