I am new member on this forum. I am from Norway and here is a picture of my first Porsche.

That's a lot of power for a first Porsche. Be careful and good luck.....

Congratulations. Enjoy the car

That turbo conversion should give you quite a boost.

Do you have unlimited speeds on the Norwegian Autobahn so you can test it out? or do you have to go the Germany for that.

Unfortunately our speed limits in the US make it hard (and illegal) to even use the top gear.

We norwegians have to use the Germany Autobahn for testing our cars...

Here is another pic.
