First Post Hello & Question
Hi All:
I have been lurking for a long time, couple years. I have learned an unbelievable amount about these works of art with soul. It will be a long time before I can offer anything to this to this wealth of information. Reading this forum and the options of it's members, I believe helped me make a wise decision on a car I have have wanted for 20 years but knew little about it. thanks to you, I think I got a great car. 1987 930 US PO had most of the Imagine Auto engine upgrades done to the car. After about 800 miles I am a happy camper, what a machine! Question: What air fuel ratio device to you recommend ? I think I should keep an eye on these numbers. Thanks for the wisdom! MT930

That is a GREAT 930!!! welcome.
You have a great wheel and tire combo as well. I really like the Mich cups! Are you going to go to the track with it? |

Looks Great !!.
As for an A/F monitoring device, I use the innovate LC-1 w/ the XD-16. Great tool to monitor and tune. Easy enough to install other than the wires barely reaching the dash where I mounted the gauge. Have fun Last edited by shaka; 09-07-2007 at 10:59 PM.. |

Awesome car Dude! I was behind one of these cars the other day, with dual exhausts, and it sounded great.
One of my customers/friends has an 86 930 that I got to drive for the first time last weekend. All I can say is....Wow! Of course now, I knew it would happen, I don't want to drive my 944's or my SC anymore. No, not really, but you know what I mean. Nothing handles like a 930. It commands the road. Welcome to the Boards and have fun with your car.

Welcome! That's an awesome car! Congrats.

Thanks! All
Yes I do plan to run it on the track. Fairly excited about that ! I thinks it's the right place to explore the car.
