Default Trying not to speed.....oh well!

After a fresh rebuild my engine sure has a renewed growl.

I live in a very urban area of Portland, Oregon and have noticed how difficult it is to keep close to the speed limits when I'm out warming the Porsche up once a week or so. Most streets in the area are 30-35mph. Even boulevards. Geez, 35. I hope I never find out what a 70mph in a 30mph speeding ticket costs. I have an on-ramp for the interstate nearby. I don't think there is a law against reaching 60mph seconds after turning on to the entrance ramp

Just thought I'd share some of my frustration of having such a fun car in the middle of town.

Who did the rebuild? What's it include?

Thanks.

Sunset Imports here in Portland. I had the cylinder update, heads worked over, replaced broken studs and all seals. No lower end work. Add in a few extra bits, like engine shroud, re-manu. starter, AC charge, brake flush.... $11,000+

Ouch
