Welcome :)

Love the white ones. Didn`t at first, the i saw one in real life. WOW. Lot of mods there i see with my tiny eye. I love most mods as long as they are heading forward. I hate taking a modded car and taking it back ;)

krasuskyp 12-30-2015 04:23 PM

Welcome and congrats, Kevin - very cool. Where you located?

sweet HRE's... while they're a bit blingy for me (personally)... well... HRE's 8-)

interior looks great - interesting '86+ sport seats (I like them better, but then again I'm jaded)

anything goin on engine etc. wise? Suspension?

have you had a chance to drive it / one yet?

again, welcome!

Car looks great. Agree w/ Paul on the seats and interior. Share your location and get to know some local members. Enjoy it in the New Year!

Good looking car and it's really encouraging that you did not say something like "I'm taking it back to stock due to soaring values"! :D

Also, that double blast cabinet in your garage looks sweet!

Kevin, the base gaskets for your headlight snorkels are still available from your local Porsche dealer, just thought you should know! I love white!

Yepp,I was looking for a 930 for years and must have driven a half dozen or soo,a few black ones red oak green,although i liked that color the car had some serious issues.I had actually given up on getting one,until my brother came rolling up with her and said i just found your car,and the slippery sloap began.

Kevin, welcome aboard and thanks for posting the pics!
Great looking car!
I've had my 930 for a couple of years now and have learned a ton (and got a lot of laughs) from this forum.
The good humor and helpful attitude of the guys on here is awesome.

Happy New Year!

What turbo does it have?

Guessing you're probably not to many parts away given the 3.4 build.. Might be turn up the boost and give it a good tune!

kevin.bodman1 01-05-2016 10:41 AM

Its a k27 that was modified,but i dont know the specifics.I wish i did.

I should have suggested to post that pic with an inquiry in a new thread named something like "help ID this K27" - will get the attention of the turbo guru's here who may not be reading this thread
