um ... i said 100 hp/litre. ie, divide horsepower by engine displacement. pretty standard way to state the efficacy of your engine. your 318 hp / 3.2 litres is 100 horsepower per litre. porsche could barely get that with race engines of the 996 era, and pretty much couldn't with the m96. 55 hp out of the 3.2 puts you at 307 hp; the 3.4L 996 only made 304 hp, so i doubt you'll be able to get there with .2 less litres.
