Just bringing back old school calculators... @ 400 lb/ft. That would equate about that 300+HP at let's say 4000rpm? Looking good if you ask me. How much for those batteries again?! I'll keep the engine in the back and add electric in the front (Hybrid 986 lol)

And where does this 950hp comes from? or have you decide to drop the rocket-fast idea already?

You want C4 996 axles.. they go right in.

Why do you think the front anti roll bar has a "hump" in it at the end? It's to clear the axles...

also.. get the C4 front diff and mounting brackets..

also.. the C4 gas tank is different.. but you don't need that

the C4 axles are not very stout..

You will KILL KILL that puny ass 5 speed (your wasting your time) Get a 930 Turbo 4 speed. Stock they will handle 800lb ft. Leave it in 3rd gear.

I'm very close friends with the guy who developed the Zilla controllers. He rented shop space from me when we both lived in the SF bay area (Palo Alto)

I consulted him for years on his drag race 914. It was the test mule for his controllers. He blew up all kinds of sh_t... he runs two motors tied together with a top fuel blower belt..
