You’re probably right at the end of the line. Maybe you’ll be the last one built! Mine is scheduled to start production this Friday the 14th. Can’t wait to see it.

Porsche build for the most part extremely reliable cars, things like the early 991.1 GT3 valvetrains and rear steer motors were both discovered after heavy track use by clients and led Porsche to offer extended warranties. From my experience, they typically always do right by their customer. There is a reason many of us buy Porsche after Porsche.


I was borrowing a 360 cam, it sort of spreads the view out in that quick view. I thought it was kind of cool because you can sort of watch the middle and occasionally check inputs to the left of the screen.


We have clients who have been running 991.2's with 600whp+ for years, I honestly don't have any concern with the engine. The average engine build usually runs $25-30K and the Turbo uses different turbos (VTGs) and electronics. It would be much easier and cheaper to sell your Carrera and buy a Turbo if you wanted the displacement. The good news is with larger turbos, these can live very happy at about 700HP and you have roughly tuned Turbo S performance which is awesome! If you want to read up more on our proven power kits, see here: https://flat6motorsports.com/pages/9...-6-motorsports
Thank you for the information, I was looking at the tunes online, and they are pretty interesting. I can imagine that boring out the T engine to the Turbo size would be completely insane to try, I was just wondering If it is possible like the 996 gt3s being bored out slightly

Good feedback and sounds like your experience has been positive. Hopefully the dealers would treat a single customer with the same type of support that they treat your folks.

This is such a sweet build!

Mine started production last Friday. Should be completed any day now. I can't wait to see it also.

The second picture isn’t from the 992.1 T: are you doing yellow deviated stitching?

Beautiful color! I received the Goodyears (have PS4s on our other cars and they are great). Don't under-estimate the Goodyears however, they are comfortable and quiet (so far) in the large spec required by the 992.
