I made a bracket and relocated the MAP sensor up next to the vacuum solenoide, sharing its mounting bolts.
Then made up a support for the end of the inlet/filter. Not convinced this looks great. Looks out of place but it's very solid. I'll have a further think...
Main benefits are increased reliability, zero maintenance, reduced complexity and also less weight - all of which are features/modernisations I've tried to make throughout this build
Other than tweeking the idle config, no changes at all. I took it for a spin yesterday but there was too much traffic about to really let rip. In all honesty under normal driving conditions, with the exception of the induction roar that starts from 4k upwards I couldn't tell much of a difference - which is both good and to the most part expected. It's still early days but does feel more responsive tho and blipping the throttle on down shifts now works Quieter, emptier roads are required I need to get the car on the rollers to tweek for my engine (cat bypass and cup pipe) but I won't have the time to do that for another 4 or 5 weeks.
Great build, can't beat a clean looking engine bay.
Would be even better if the rest of the 964 **** could be relocated from the top of the inlet manifold.

+1 Porsche engines aren't the prettiest engines in the world, but the 964 is one of the worst, sadly

Singer have managed it, and I've recently seen another engine build showing a clean Plenum.
Don't be surprised if Rob mama he's to do the same, just give him time!
