In this video we ride along with Alan in his Turbo 07K swapped Porsche 944 at Nelson Ledges Road Course. This was taken at 944Fest 21 which was a blast as always!
My brother and I had been wanting to swap an in-line 5 with the Quattro system in his 944. After some thought, we ended up just swapping an Audi 3b into a Audi 90 coupe. Much easier and less costly. We were satisfied but I was left wondering what the 3b with Quattro would have been like..
Thanks! This was at 16psi. We had planned to up it that weekend but never got around to it. We did actually have the boost reference line pop off the wastegate and briefly saw 27psi lol. Boost cut on the tune worked and saved our butts.
How do i get one of those 5 cylinder engines to Australia? I really want to do this swap but getting my hands on a decent engine is going to be the biggest problem.
We always use eBay, they are dirt cheap on there. We typically pay $300 or less shipped. I know shipping across the pond will be expensive but with the engine being so cheap maybe it still makes sense?
It’s still listed but we are not currently taking orders as we reached out production capacity for the year. I believe we are making a few extra kits though and will have them available towards the end of the year. We’ll make announcements on our Facebook page when they are available.
@@BoostBrothersGarage I have been driving Porsches for 47 years and running what is now called DE events since I turned 18 ( at that time you had to be 18 to be a PCA member). My start as a second generation Porsche Pusher were not short low speed tracks that you run (by the way I have run every track you have run and more) but at BIR and Road America. Safety was the number one thing put in our head by opur parents. My christmas present before my first track event was a fire suit. And any car that was capable of over 100 MPH needed at minimum a roll bar. I guess you have never seen some one get burned after an aw shit on the race track.
The idea of a 5 Cylinder in a 944 never occurred to me but this is incredible! Amazing work!
This has us all pumped. So much goodness in this video. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Going to be insane in a 964!
Sounds amazing!! Love seeing the race dash in action too!
Thanks! It’s simple but effective and works great!
Lots of inspiration for me and my 07k golf!
Love that 5 cylinder sound
Intoxicating!
Oh how I would love my 944 to sound like this.
That car sounds so good revving!
Love everything about this! Need more video!!!!
More coming soon!
That's great stuff guys! +1 on the engine note!

Oh yeah!!
Great to watch dude. You upped the boost yet or still at 18/19 PSI?
Thanks! This was at 16psi. We had planned to up it that weekend but never got around to it. We did actually have the boost reference line pop off the wastegate and briefly saw 27psi lol. Boost cut on the tune worked and saved our butts.
dude nice
Are you guys ever gonna bring back the 07k swap kit for the 944
Yeah! We do it multiple times a year. Shoot me an email and I’ll get you on the wait list.
Hi, what are the turbo settings? Measurements and Brand? Congrats on the project, thank you.

How are the 07k holding up on 450 bhp?
Hey guys! What happened to the 07k Swap kit? Its no longer at your website

how is it compared to the ls swap? I just wanna go fast mama
My answer would be biased. I will say tube guy that designed this kit did so because he didn’t like his LS Swapped 944
oh man. That needed to last another lap.
Haha, that’s the only footage he sent me!
You know he got more than that.. LOL
You sit too far from the steering wheel. Great machine anyway
First
Lightning fast
Who let you on track in shorts and a short sleeve shirt. You do not think safety gear is important. You must not value your life.
This was a PCA sanctioned event. Their rules.
