Great shot Ernest! Can you send me a hi-res version (if you have one)?

Thanks Adam for your hospitality. I'm going look into a lift.
Thanks Steve for letting us crawl all over your 928.

And thanks Roger for the door prizes. Very Cool!
Tony thanks coming. You're the Sharkmaster General of the northeast, I can't wait for the next event. That trip to PA sounded cool and I'm looking forward to a trip to the 'strip' and the next dyno day. (The wife says thanks for the compliment, anytime).

Gotta love that. I did tell them that I happen to know the effects of putting in a chip with the wrong orientation from personal experience, but we didn't have that problem Saturday.

I get that feeling of steering with the back wheels with my '86.5 auto, too. The chips and higher fuel pressure really do wake up the 'slush-box' at low rpms. I remember when I installed the X-pipe, way back when. It made better numbers on the dyno, but didn't change the off-idle thrust much. Now, it's not a matter of if I can spin the 265s from a stoplight, it's how far down the block do I want to spin them.

Stab it and steer!

Can anyone tell me from the pictures how many Porken products were used in this transformation? (besides Ken)
