I'd say there's going to be a lot more smoke in the air around this SITM than ever before. DR should have a bundle deal of new rear tires with each SC.

Tom,

Thanks for the kind words and thanks again for the hospitality last weekend! Sorry we worked you so hard on your Memorial Day holiday!

Do me a favor and bring that clogged fuel filter and "tweaked" input damper with you to SITM. My 44 magnum rifle and I have some plans for those parts after the stress they put me thru earlier this week :-)

Please drive carefull on the way down, you are now more than ever driving a "one of a kind" ( hopefully not for long :-) 928!

Stan (MrMerlin),

>Hi just a thought how is the condition of the fuel lines if they are not new i would change them asap,

Tom's fuel lines looked very good plus the front one is new, plus our system uses stock fuel pressures so the lines will not be stressed any more than normal. However it is always smart to change out those lines if there is any doubt.

>and as always a few pictures would be nice, thanks,

Don't blame Tom for lack of photos, he is under a "gag order" concerning photos until Sharks in the Mountains :-)

Cool, the purple shark is supercharged! Damn you should bring Barney over for a tour of the PacNW, and go minivan(soccer mom) hunting.

Dave has outdone himself here. This system is beautiful and looks like it is stock. On the mechanical side he has tweaked the TS and the intake to get the maximum benefits. An incredible piece of work.Two thumbs up

Wow! DR, that is TRULY a work of art! This is what Porsche should have done to our beloved sharks right from the factory. The fit and styling is immaculate. It looks like it rolled right off the line.

It should be mandatory that all sharks be fitted with one!!
