aporscha parts had a twin turbo type 4 motor developing 750nm of torque.
by the look of the cooling for the motor it mustn,t run for long and Pauter get 600 to 800hp out of the motors.
Remmele gets 250hp N/A. maybe there all things you pull a pin out of and throw

Id hazzard a guess that the cooling system is more or less none existent.... It would seem to be more of a drag engine than a serious road engine....
And it prolly runs on methanol in which case cooling the engine is not such a big issue..... What shrouding and fan that may be used is more than
likely just to keep the temp down while staging at the strip....

use 2 thermo fans to cool the motor .

Looks like water cooled heads and air flow over the barrels.
Also looks like a water boxer case.

certainly isn't a street car. there's no alternator/gennie in sight. huge long intake runners. I would have thought you'd want the injectors closer
to the ports too. What's the idea with that?

It's Finnish (the .fi in the URL kind of gives it away...)
The machine translation I got is more amusing than informative:
Here boxerimoottorissa is much happy entity engine käyttöalueen vis-a-vis. Engine striking required output circa ahdoilla. Engine is measured
480hv/580nm torsion bar ), circa 6000rpm whereupon sutiminen liquor ( no lubrication measure pitemmälle ). Felon koneessa is circa bar ahdot , when
engine generate circa 600hv. Auto became unseeing lamb erilaisissa tapahtumissa earnest alastarolla,ja muissa vastaavissa tapahtumissa around
marshland.

Which means what exactly???? Bugger of a translation... Its almost humourous!
I think there is an alt down the bottom of the engine to the right.... Look closely there... You can see a pulley and belt.....
And I think your right about the WBX crankcase and watercooled heads Dave.... And i think its twin turbo too!.... Big ass turbos at that!

Don't worry Wayne, your car is still a street car in my eyes, but please be careful out on the street.
