I heard that also, that the base was 951 and the S turbo was 952.

No.

952 has nothing to do with the engine codes or S non-S designation.

There were 952 part numbers way before the S came out.

Exactly, I think the fact that the engines are named 51 and 52 has been confusing for people in the past.

neat the 927, 941, 942 and 945 are news to me, having known 932 and 952 already it makes sense.

i refer to my 924 turbo as a 931 out of simplicity. Saying 932 all the time confuses too many people.

Just as well that nobody liked my idea of the 951 badge's...

With all these codes it would have cost me a b4st4rd fortune
