He has even taken every class Jake Raby teaches about the M96/M97 motor. Heck he might have even taught Jake a thing or two as he's been working on Porsche motors for decades. Anyway, he tried putting a 2.7 in a 2.5 car. He ended up getting it to run but I believe he had to put the 2.5 heads, wiring harness and intake on the 2.7 motor and it still kept throwing codes. I'm not sure how much farther he's gotten with it though. He was doing it for fun. On another note, you're not going to see much of an improvement with a 2.7. That's a lot of work and $$ for little gain.

Well maybe you should reread it again because your reading comprehension is that of a first grader

Nowhere in that post does it say he knows more than Jake. This is your lack of reading comprehension that I'm talking about. I said Jake "might" have learned a thing or two from him. He is part owner of the best air cooled porsche repair facility in Texas and his shop is a certified L&N Solution installation garage. The only one in Texas. I would imagine that Jake cut him a deal on classes but that's none of my business to ask.. Even if Jake didn't, a couple of grand is pocket change to him
