Very nice. The injectors are normally pretty loud. I wouldn't expect cleaning to make them any quieter.

Nope, I have a 924S that is tensioned on the low side of the factory spec that disagrees with you.

yeah i actually have all the cable now to do the relocation. I just put all the stock junk in there temporarily to get it going.

i really wish i knew what i did with my idle control valve... i want to throw that back in there too just to see if the idle improves at all.

where did my huge lame looking air flow meter and air box go?


oh there it is




im going to fit a small pipe between the filter and the AFM... having it right on the AFM like that makes the car pretty unhappy.

just need to throw a vented panel on there... should be lots of fresh air flow

ah nice solution. it'd just be a pain to change the filter heh.

u should get a custom bent one piece alum pipe for the intake. although that giant S prob isn't a good shape to route it...hmmm i wanna redesign the intake for the NA engines.

yeah. im planning on getting a 1 piece tube made out of stainless then powder coating it black or something.

but from my little test piece i stuck in there... a 3 inch tube will fit through that opening under the header panel with no problem

I'm still going to say over tight.

I have a 968 engine with the auto tensioner (gas charged piston with no adjustments) and a brand new belt makes very little noise.


Either way, just double check it.
