The porsche lumps were a great engine with big power potential , seen a few being swapped over to fit the 5 gt turbo.
So you might have some porsche spirit to brighten up your volvo !!

From what i know that its just the head thats designed by porsche and the bottom end is just a renault 1.7 engine? But yes. If you put some time in it you can get a nice tuned engine. Allready making plans to change the T2 for a T25 i have here
