I haven't touched anything newer than and early 80's 930 clone. The older stuff was cake. Basically a big block VW motor. My brother has on 02 911 thats something like 400hp. I was checking it out and it does look intimidating...... hauls ass to!
Well I've turned in my notice at BMW and moving on to bigger and better things (I hope). I've been offered a job at Newport Auto Center as a Porsche Tech. I've caught on to the German car thing pretty fast. It only took me a year to get the shop foreman status at BMW (with no German car experience at all), but these little German rocket ships are a little intimidating. Has anybody had any experience with them? I'm starting in a couple of weeks. I should be interesting. I'm kind of bummed though, I don't have my 2 weeks of vacation to spend at the lake this year.

I work on them and often get parts at the N center,parts very $$.
The factory turbos are at 400hp
I'm not a Porsche Technician but I played one for a while (not really - just did mods to Boxsters and 911s) when I was selling aftermarket parts and accessories.
I have a couple of contacts up in the SF Bay Area who are Porsche Techs if you need to talk to them.
Good luck!
I ripped the motors out of the older stuff and put real horsepower, and reliability in them
Just something about 400 HP in a 1850-1900lb car that 3000lb cars cant do :devil:
