Unbeknownst to the rest of Rennlist, Mark in Baltimore runs a glue factory, and keeps photos of raw materials readily at hand.

I've owned this car since it was new. Picked it up with 42 miles on the ODO. The engine tray is still on. Major engine work by year:
1996 - none:::2002 - none:::2008 - none
1997 - none:::2003 - none:::2009 - none
1998 - none:::2004 - none:::2010 - none
1999 - none:::2005 - none:::2011 - none
2000 - none:::2006 - none:::2012 - none
2001 - none:::2007 - none

I guess I just have a lot of faith in the Porsche engineers' design. It certainly hasn't hurt my engine yet, but the car is barely broken in.

Cactus, +1 on the Geto Boys! That entire soundtrack is awesome!

Greg:

The Canadian guy is Alex; user name IXLR8.

About this time each year, he spends a couple of months in the Alps, riding his motorcycle. Send him a note, and he'll reply when he gets back.

Depends on what undertray you are using and if you added active cooling to the setup:

Now that is what you call an undertray
At the risk of continuing this thread I must ask what is "active cooling"?

Theo,

That is where the work goes into it. Also some strategic vents were added. Provides 5 to 15 degs of diffuser angle (adjustable) at the back. This is strictly for a race car and would make no sense on a street car (except for cool factor). Best of all, it really works to balance the extended front splitter (EVO I GT2 style).
