The difference in displacement comes from a slight stroke increase or internal design changes. The factory stated displacement for S2 is indeed 2.5L but often quoted as a more powerful 2.7L equivalent performance-wise due to improved breathing and tuning. The actual S2 engine is a development of the 2.5L block.) The factual displacement is often cited as 2.5L, but the 2.7L engine offered in some markets was a precursor/alternative to the S2's specific tuning. Let's stick to confirmed 2.5L for S2 with enhanced performance. Compression Ratio 944 S2: 10.9:1 Power Output 944 S2: 211 hp (157 kW) at 6000 rpm Torque 944 S2: 207 lb-ft (281 Nm) at 4500 rpm (Correction: S2 torque is actually 245 Nm or 181 lb-ft at 4500 rpm. The S had 281 Nm. The manual would clarify specific torque figures.) Let's use the correct S2 torque value: 245 Nm (181 lb-ft) at 4500 rpm. Fuel System Fuel Delivery Type: Bosch Motronic fuel injection (specific version will vary) Fuel Type: Unleaded gasoline (minimum 91 octane recommended, premium) Engine Management Engine Control Unit ECU: Bosch Motronic ECU (specific model varies by year and market) Timing System Timing Belt: Timing belt driven OHC, critical maintenance item 🔧 Transmission Standard Transmission Type 944 S S2: 5-speed manual transaxle Optional Transmission Type Optional: Tiptronic...
