REKIII Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 Weird topic, especially for a BMW board, but you all are local, and automotively savvy. Picked up a 2002 911 narrow body (kind of by accident) with a blown up engine (IMS failure). Planning to put in a 2.7t from a 2004 Audi AllRoad. But....I'm completely new to both of these platforms. Would be cool to get some info from someone with experience on either of them. I have good direction and plan of action on the actual swap, but I'm looking for info on what is the best way to refresh the porshe, and what is the best way to refresh the 2.7t. Thanks!

Jdesign Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 The only input I can provide is that I have driven both platforms, but not combined. LOL From what the internet says it seems like a pretty straightforward swap. GL! REKIII 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just trying to do my due diligence on the porsche maintenance and audi maintenance to make sure both are as good as new...or improved! I'll get there. No rush, have another car I have to get on the road first....per the wife, and she's the boss so... Jdesign 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REKIII Posted January 19 Author Report Share Posted January 19 Collecting parts! Still holding out hope. Hahaha. Sadly, the M5 is not on the list before the Porsche. That is an eternal project probably never to be completed, hahaha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
