Saving a Porsche. Vr6 Turbo power

[bradp@adaptecspeedware]

After deciding i didnt want to screw with the accel wires i ordered som 8mm from ngp with hopes that the shortest wires would be long enough to reach relocated coil pack. Well they are.

Waiting on plug wires and some sensors so i decided to get the caps fitted in. Just took a file and filed the edge flat. They press in now and are super tight.

The 993 roof spoiler is NLA from Porsche and trying to find a used one is ridiculous. the aftermarket ones look goofy the way they come down the sides so i thought id try and replicate one close to the oem one out of foam and then fiberglass it. I'll use the oem led strip.

While waiting on parts i decided to start making a heat shield. I ordered some lava heat tape and picked up some 1/8 plate.

So damn Close! Need a maf sensor, o2 sensor, 1 fuel fitting, tb pipe welded and make one ground strap and it should be 100% mechanically buttoned up to run.

Ok so if you've been reading you know the water neck has been an issue without wanting to chop into the factory metal. Well after switching to a 90 AN it was still to tight. Ordered a tight 90, no dice. So im proud to present version 4.0 lol. I had to change out the fitting on the coolant hose but now i have a nice tight 90 coming off the block and i used a 90 swivel AN to go back the other way.

Had my buddy Stanley weld up some tips, dual 2.5" pipe and made me a smooth 2 into 1 transition. just need to cut a couple more tight 90's and exhaust is done. I'll get some oil and gas in it this weekend and see what happens.



58'' from turbo to tip. should be rowdy

[bradp@adaptecspeedware]

you never drive thru on a good day haha thanks man. hope i can drive it up for that. ive been having to buy little bits here and there that are small things i overlooked and its more shipping time holding things up. wiring has one more weekend so trying to get everything else complete so when the key turns, technically it could be ready to drive. interior is at loves so i'll be pushing that time frame as well.

i need to see this on the 13th, if not before. every time i've passed thru Lex, i've wanted to stop by but you are one busy dude.

excellent work. i can't wait to see this in the metal.

I can dig it. Can't wait to see it hit the road!
