Default At the bottom of the slope, in desperation ...

... finding an outlet. So I have never liked the awkward jack handle. Takes up too much room in the front of the trunk (boot?). So my **** nature took over. It isn't an elegant attachment of the ratchet connection (epoxy and duct tape), but it is cleaner (and takes up less space):

You are grasping at straws here. Do a top end rebuild with Ninemeister heads or something.

Yeah or something simple or cheap like a tranny regear.

Top end - done (9M heads a no go in Calif)
Gutter delete - done (it's a cab!)
Tranny regear - done (it's a tip)

Next step - move on. Thx for the suggestions.

Nurburger: Can't use Ricardo for the street, and I am not aware of anyone installing a PDK in a 993. (9M could do it but they can't assure compliance for CA DMV, plus the PDK alone is about $30K+) Clearly (tip slush) I am not tracking the car, but would spend $, just not $$$.
