Default King Of Porsche

Finally got my copy of great book : Porsche 993 The Essential Companion
by Adrian Streather.
There you can find many interested topic, like Improving Performance in every area. Yes! there are many tips for air filters, exhaust systems, cats, headers, turbochargers and intercoolers.
I highly recommend.

The book is excellent. However, it's 640 pages, so be prepared for some long reading...

Does the book have exploded views of the tranny? Unfortunately the PET does not....I'm gonna tackle changing out the viscous coupler, will get pics for a DIY.

js-911,

Consider the ethics of scanning and reproducing parts of a book or a manual. I'm no expert... this may not be cool.

Thank you js-911. I don't see any harm in scanning the DIY section headings....might even sell more books.

Thanks to this post, I ordered mine. I'm still not sure scanning is the right thing, but without this post, I would have never known it was out! Kinda expensive, but wow, 600+ pages! I can't wait!

Divide it per page and it becomes cheap
