Green circle: brake wear indicator and abs sensor wiring. I have removed the ABS system and the brake wear sensors. To remove the brake wear sensor light on the dash I have shorted the wiring which is seen in the green circle.
The fuel lines are covered in a heat shielding and I did route the line along the fuel line and then strait to the hole in the body.

Wouldn't it be better to have the fuel hose arrow is pointing to, up higher away from heat, headers, etc.?
I do think Lindsey Racing can supply AugTronic parts.
Thanks.. but I dont see the mount for the wasted spark ... the picture you have shows a very nice integrated mount for the Beru unit to attached to the Cam Cover... where'd you get that?

it came with the wasted spark kit kit I’ve ordered from https://www.partsforporsche.co.uk/55-augment-automotive.
Not sure they sell it seperately (they don’t for the Tial wastegate adapter plates). Just send them an email.
I think I have found the problem causing the oil leak.
The inside of the (ofcourse brand new) cam shaft oil seal did not had a good seal to the spacer sleeve.
I have ordered a new spacer sleeve and a new seal and have to wait again :-(
But, pretty confident that this will solve my oil leak!

Reason: typo
It's definetely the camshaf seal!
In the early days the oil seal was a 47-30-7.
Nowadays you will receive a 47-32-7 oil seal when ordering a new camshaft seal. However, my spacer sleeve has an outer diameter of 30 mm. The 32 mm seal will never seal!
Thanks so much for all the great pics. Outstanding job! BTW, would you be kind enough to tell me where I could get a .73 fifth gear?
I asked my gearbox rebuilder for a taller fifth gear and suggested (I think a.78). He has a lot of experience with Porsche gearboxes and mentioned that a .73 is available. I’m not sure from which gearbox.
in a few weeks I can tell you if it is a good fit.
I had the car running, but heard a knocking sound coming from somewhere near the transmission tunnel. At first I ignored it, because I thought it was the exhaust hitting a bolt in the transmission tunnel. It turned out to be the reference sensor marking on the flywheel touching my brand new reference sensor. I had gapped the sensor bracket with an old sensor while using a 2 mm spacer ring for the speed sensor. Why did I use the 2 mm spacer? Because it came with the car! Using this spacer resulted in a perfect gapped speed sensor, but a reference sensor mark just hitting the reference sensor.
After regapping the sensor bracket the car did not start.
Retried --> No start
Retried --> No start
FYI: retrying meant
- taking of the intake manifold
- removing the sensors
- loosening the bracket
- putting in the modified old sensor (with a 0.8 mm ring attached)
- fastening the bracket
- removing the old sensor
- inserting the sensors
- re-assamble the intake manifold
I did that several times with no luck!
This week I received a brand new sensor bracket en two new sensors and while regapping the bracket noticed a minor coolant leak from the heater valve. I have probably wrecked the heater valve with all the fooling around with the sensors. Now I'm waiting for a new heater valve. I will have to drain some of the (Evans waterless) coolant to don't make a mess replacing the heater valve.
If the car won't start in the next couple of days I probably will take the engine out and go for a LS swap!
All nightmares on working on an 944 Turbo engine are coming back to me from a distant past.
