I like the third pic! I see a slight resemblance of a BB6 from that shot.

4L stroker kit from Esprit? That certainly seems interesting. So if I remember correctly, there's a 3.8L JUN (or was), apparently a 4.0L Esprit, and the 4.3L AEBS that's recently gotten so much attention. Not any have started putting out kits to my knowledge, but at least we're starting to get word on development. If everyone produces there turbos, and then in short time works out the kinks in there stroker kits, the Z world could be moving ahead a a pretty god clip. Wow, now I have even more to day-dream about during Physics...

Any one have any more info on this Esprit deal, or any other kit? Sorry to attempt a thread hijack, I just can't help myself.

No problem!, I am interested in raising the competitiveness of the Z as well, If you read the article from that site winding8.com it says that the Esprit kit is actually going to be 4.3 Liters.

I am sure you can piece any stroker kit together but displacement alone without the engine running smoothly is pointless.

Do you know who won the race? Did the Porsche ever pass the Espirit Z?

It was a tuning session with a couple of other tuners. At the beginning the gt3 was in front but after a couple of setting adjustments the z started getting chances to pass. These were after the z passed it. Other than that they are pretty evenly matched.
