pkp4911 not much I can comment on your conversion as I don't have any real world experience with it . What I can comment on is how the engine Jake built for me has transformed my car. It is night and day different between the original 3.2 and the motor Jake built . I don't have the dyno sheet in front of me on the 3.2 but going on memory my new engine is laying down about 70 more hp to the wheels which is HUGE ! Torque also is much more then original . That is just comparing numbers , in real world driving it feels like the gap between OEM and what I have now is even more than that . The car drives like it has well over 300 at the wheels it really is a beast . And the power curve is very linear , it just grows and grows as the rev's continue to climb. No dead spots or flat spots .
From what Jake has told me in emails and personal conversations no OEM 3.6 is going to feel/drive like my motor and that's because of ALL of the internal voodoo that Jake did to it . As he say's it's all in the combo . Add to that all the tuning experience Jake has it's no wonder my car is as good as it is . I think in your case you need to find a tuner that REALLY knows modern Porsche's and how to tune them . That's probably as good as you are going to get without diving into the internals . Good luck with your project .
