Default Turbo SWAG

This came in the mail today from PCNA.. A hardback book and a working VTG turbo model.

The detail on this is impressive, the turbo spins and the VTG actuator moves the vanes.

I guess Porsche wants me to trade in my 997.1TT for a 991.2TT..

I'd like to have a piece of their marketing budget..

Got one too. Pretty awesome marketing. It is on my shelf in my office with all of the other cool stuff they have sent me. This thing is very nicely made too, and love how you can spin it and change the vane angles with the actuator....

No, 2.5 years ago from a dealer in Dallas.

I'm sure Porsche's marketing group has very precise calculations on who to send these to based on lots of analytical data..
