Yes sir. Mid 80s and no humidity in July is almost unheard of around here.

Had my wheels powder coated gloss black. I love my 17" Cups, am tired of cleaning brake dust, and still want some bling.

the black wheels are a beautiful contrast to polar silver.

Reballed the rear lips half inch smaller to a 4 inch lip. This is my street set up and 17s Fikse if I track the 993.

This was on 7/1/2022 and I filled up the gas and my odometer arrived at 63,911 right at the gas station. I missed capturing the odometer the following week when it arrived at 63,993 because I was having fun driving and not paying attention to what the odometer was at.

Default cleaning SAI ports in the exhaust ports

Using the "Bruce7" method from the search of the site, I started the job on the left bank, as that is the side i got the Durametric message that showed a fail on that side for the SAI. I had already changed out the SAI valve and vacuum switch valve above it last year but to no effect on the check engine light. Good news is with an application of Kroil penetrant the Fabspeed headers came off with no drama. Number 1 was missing one nut (!) and that was also the problem port with a pretty good carbon buildup (it took a while to find and free the SAI port). Using the bicycle cable method and a little carb cleaner at the end gave me success as I finally got the cable all the way through the channels. Next week I start on the right side, time permitting. I got a set of 2 lift bars and they work pretty slick, they are really heavy steel, lock into the 993 lift points and are very well made. Very secure lift process, I get a little anxious working under the car. Storage is like having 2 golf clubs standing in a corner, in other words no issue.
