Reply to "Turbo Subie 904—Not a Beck"

@RCosta That was the plug for the current molds, pulled from a pair of originals and then modified to our current spec.  The SHOGun was a fun project, built 9 of them before Ford just made it too hard to do (actually barred CA dealerships from selling to us, in fact Leno had to buy his own donor cars LOL).  And that original prototype Polo motor... what a blast that was.  We ran it in a Spyder for many years and then refreshed it for a project that never happened and it is now in the hands of Rod Emory.

@edsnova Everything GTS (904) we have built is 911 powered, and while Ive had several guys ask about other drivetrains, they have all wound up Porsche powered 6 cylinder (we have a few Cayman/Boxster powered cars int he works).  Average GTS leaves here just north of $100K, and currently our used cars are trading in the $120K range.  As for the BAT car I really hate to say anything bad about someone else's project, especially that they are obviously proud of, but since you asked...  there is just SO MUCH wrong about it in my opinion.  Suspension in single shear, brackets holding brackets, odd spindles and steering with WAY too many universals in the steering, pedal position, shortened 4 link bars in place of a-arms, homemade hinges, a pilar covers are installed upside down, to name a few.
