On the 951 its just the stock tune. I like to buy bent valve cars and rebuild them that's why I've rebuilt 2 motors so far. The 951 just had a leaking cam tower gasket onto the exhaust so I picked it up for dirt cheap.

My turbo is also sluggish from a stop. I've always contributed it to the low compression. I would imagine turbos are slower than NAs from a stop with their higher compression.

Looking forward to some GTG/drives this summer.

I am pretty sure you need to be a paying member to do so.

I'm planning in going to the next Cars and Coffee in Lafayette on the Saturday after the 4th of July (7/7).

Hope to see some of you there.

I might actually be able to make that Cars and Coffee. It'll be the first time ever. Greg, remind me to bring your boost tube couplers!
