My Porsche

In 2007 I got around to buying a new toy.  It's a Porsche 944 Turbo S.  It took me a while to find one that wasn't silly money or rusting to bits. 

 

 

I have big plans for the future, but that might be me getting a bit giddy at all the tuning bits available for it.  For now I've only managed to buy a nice shiney recirc valve for it and a set of 17" wheels.  I will try and update this page below as more happens so keep an eye open........

Update.........Summer 2008

Just cost me a small fortune for the service and running repairs but I have still managed to do a mod or two.  First off was a dual port wastegate from Lindsey racing in the states.  This replaced the old wastegate with it's 20 year old weak spring.  This allows me to up the boost to whatever I like now! 

Along with this mod I have fitted an Apexi AVC-R boost controller.  This is a marvellous piece of kit that allows you to tailor the boost in each gear and throughout different points in each gear.  It's all very complicated and has lots of nice flashy lights.  It should be good for any mods I plan on doing in the future.  For now the boost is set at about 1.1bar.  I think this puts the car's current power at around 280/290 BHP.

More to follow....................
