Can you explain all the connections on the drivers side of the intake Plenum? There looks to be 4 or 5 bosses welded up with various hoses protruding from each. There is also one on the back. The two up front look like a vacuum source for BOV and intake air temp sensor.
I do not know each one specificaly, though I would assume the usual suspects... FPR, fuel damper, wastegate, MAP signal to EMS, boost guage, etc...

Hmmmm, unless you have a fuel injector there, it can't be FPR or damper hook up. Does the car have a setup for enriching the fuel with a secondary (set of) injector(s)? Perhaps water injection?

Actually, I think I need to come over and "inspect" this war wagon myself. I'm always looking for good ideas, and it looks like your rig has a boat load of 'em all wrapped up in one nice package!

Hi,

Just wondering who makes the front bumper section for this car? Is it crawford? because I was unable to find anything like it on their website. If you have any info it would be appreciated.

No extra fuel injectors or water injection systems, they are just vac lines going to various parts. Next time you are in Jacksonville, stop by Broadfoots shop for a visit.

The front clip is a Broadfoot Racing part. Give Albert a shout for details on that.

By your sig line I would have thought it was in Naples. Man, you have quite a few miles to drive to play with your toy!

Default 951 at Broadfoot in Jax.

Sorry for hijacking your thread Max.SeaCay, read my sig line.The reason that the 951 is in Jax is that Albert Broadfoot's shop is located there,who else knows the car better than the original builder,and who better to rebuild it.Second reason is that I lived in Ponte Vedra Beach which is real close to Alberts shop,also great access to Daytona and Roebling Road. Third reason is that it keeps the 951 about 360 miles away from Sloth's very heavy leaden right foot.

Hyroller wasn't that your 85 911 RSR in Excellence a few years ago. That is one mean looking car.

No, our 911 was never featured in Excellence.
