![]() ![]() Not that I don't enjoy an occasional thread on the social aspects of P-car ownership, but the reason I left rennlist was because it turned into nothing more than a social gathering. Ok, so the polite request here is to invoke a thread(s) that is totally performance "high octane" related. Anyone interested in how crank fire ignition works, boost, torque, engine management, wild hp claims, anything performance related! ------------------ Mark The Beast mark@hargett.com [This message has been edited by Natchamp (edited 07-19-2001).] |

I agree that we need performance related threads. But I live in what I consider a remote part of California, and I like talking to other p-car people about everything. Whether it be a Porsche sighting, help with a problem, wild HP claims, K&N bashing, ricer bashing, just about anything.

OK, I'll bite. Where do I get a Ruf 6-speed for my '81 911SC for less than $2k?
I'm sick of my 915--and I just had it rebuilt. ------------------ blue '81 SC Targa |

Mark it is the nature of the beast that the majority rules on any message board and obviously this board enjoys a lot of social interaction. I for one think it makes for a closer group of members that a strictly "technical" board would. As for the complaint that this board is too social, I did a quick survey of topics in which there where posting for today, July 19. There are 40 topics. They break down to three categories:
17 postings strictly technical 13 postings about P-Cars of a general nature 9 postings that are social, off topic or about other cars. That break down is not a bad mix. Kurt V 72 911E |

This is why Wayne created the "Porsche Talk" and "Off Topic Rantings" message boards.
Lets inspire people to use them. Nick. ------------------ _ _ __ _ _ Nick Shumaker 1982 911SC Coupe nickshu@yahoo.com PCA -- Rocky Mtn. Region [This message has been edited by Nickshu (edited 07-19-2001).] |

Any comments on the 3.2 to 3.4 upgrade?
What else to consider when doing the 3.4? JE or Mahle? Cams? Valvetrain components? ExtrudeHone intake? Rods (new rod bolts I know)? 964 oil pump? Twin plug, but what type? Cost is an object, but still gotta do it right while you're doing it. Let's hear it! Just curious for the future. Thanks. ------------------ Kevin 87 Carrera coupe |
