Thanks again Neil. The engine feels amazing. It still has plenty of torque at low revs and does't feel like it is struggling down low at all, and at the moment with the 6k redline, it feels like it just wants to keep revving. I am looking forward to the final tune to 8k, although I will probably keep the redline at 7.5k to be on the safer side

This week I get back into wiring on Harry 911, adding a MAP sensor and Cruise control?!

This week I go through and start prepping Harry 911 for the track, including fitting harnesses, adjusting the valve lash and fitting a fire extinguisher bracket.

It is finally time to get Harry 911 back on the dyno for the full tune, but it doesn't all go as I hoped.

It is finally completed and on the road. Here is the full summary of 5 years of work building my dream Porsche 911 in my home garage.

Now Harry 911 is a running driving car, it is time to start tidying up some of the things that have been bugging me on the interior. First step is to build a custom floorboard.

This week I look into the issues I had with Harry 911 on the Dyno and attempt to diagnose them.

In this video I give you an update on Harry's progress over the last few months and build yet another exhaust system, to hopefully this time sort out my power restriction.

This week I go through some data and make a few tweaks to see what sort of difference the new exhaust on Harry 911 has made.

In this episode I look a bit deeper into Harry's tuning from a couple of weeks ago and see how much we can smooth out on the road.

There have been a bunch of niggling problems on Harry since finishing the built that I still need to sort out. This week I finally get the wipers to park themselves.

One of the things that has been bothering me about Harry 911 ever since I finished is the dash panel. So it is about time I have another go.

This week I try to finish up Harry 911's dash, but it doesn't all go to plan.

This week I have another crack at the lower dash pad for Harry 911 with much better results.
