An old car of mine that I came across this video file this morning. Not a "Porsche" sound...I warned you! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

PS: This was the first "start up" and bleeding the cooling system - thus the trickle of fluid AND don't follow my
my lousy extinguisher placement. Not practical in the time of need!!!

Looks like the exhaust will blow the rear valence panel right off !

Impressive swap !


Needed a down turn pipe - the paint was already off the valance

How did air get into the trunk for the intake?

T.C.- "I may not be the brightest bulb on the chandelier but I certainly ain't the dimmest either." (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

This will explain things a little better. Here is a pic of the original (w/ 901) exhaust with "twin centered" (hidden) down-pipes and a dummy "single" exhaust tip (looked real clean and was always clean!). What you're seeing with the pipes cut off is post 930 swap and was a temporary issue since there was trans/shifter cables interference. It was enjoyable watching people figure-out what was going on under there! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Regarding the intake: I simply removed the two plastic cups (the targa latch recess pockets) in the mid-trunk panel. The car made 434 rwhp (post cam/head during the 930 upgrade) so I presume it was getting oxygen for combustion. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

It wasn't ideal but I've got a much improved system on my current build. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
