pimp 0 Posted May 6, 2005 I always thought the 944 was a turbo and the 924 was non turbo. Can't be sure although I remember reading it somewhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vr6storm 0 Posted May 6, 2005 924 turbo's were made from 78-82 and come in two flavours......170bhp series1's and 177bhp series2's..............140mph+ and 0-60 in the seven-second bracket...........however........they are mega dear to fix(purchase cost-expenditure ratio) as the head is actually made by Porsche instead of Audi like the n/a 924's........but they are damn cool IMHO if you want the ultimate 924 then best get £10k+ and go for the 924 carrera GT which is a wide-arched 210bhp limited edition(75 rhd) 924 turbo more or less.....
