You'd have to use '86 or earlier parts if they even have ABS?

The 1988 944S is the same as 1988 944 turbo thru 1994 968. Generally most of the parts are not normally beetle compatible, unless your into some moderate to extreme fabrication.

The later model stuff would introduce a lot of parts compatibility issues. 100mm wider each side in the rear end, rear axel and hubs have diferent splines(not early 944 or beetle compatible), balljoint-spindle mounts are much larger than beetle. You might be able to get away with mixing some early and late parts and use all the abs control stuff from a later model car then. A little custom work as well would be required. If you have access to play around with a lot of parts it would be interesting to see what measures up and fits together.
