912 "E's" Rule
I gotta say pelican people are the best. I had a great weekend in the Los Angels area . I would like to show my gratitude to Coldbass for being such a great guy for letting me experience his 912e. I think the shet grin on my face was enough to let him know, that his 912e kicks!!! Pictures say a lot.
 Front view of the 912e...It left me speechless great car  Custom Tip on the muffler as per Coldbass's request...what did I think? Mine will have it   coated muffler, adds a great touch and keeps temps down..  coated exchangers, look great and keep temps down...  Snuggy Recaro's, let me tell you these seats keep you in place when the road gets twisty..I would recommend them..  who says the 912e engine can't be a thing of beauty?  A drive on the 710, the "E" had more then enough passing power..  The sticker says it all..Rich the mechanic was very nice and very helpful, even though he was busy he took the time to talk to me, has some tricks to get the type 4 running very torquey!!!! Very highly recommended, if you want a trust worthily mechanic and some tricks on your type 4, Porsche engines, Mercedes, he's the guy to go too… Finale impressions of Coldbass's 912"E", the car is the shet, who the hell says 912"E" are slow? They need to drive Coldbass's 912"E"and see what a high reving type 4 is all about. Torque through out all gears and no wimping out in the highs either, low-middle-high the powers all there......I still have a shet grin on my face from the drive.....Coldbass thanks for all you've done and thanks for the wheels...Can't wait to make the trip for the pickup of mine...

Type 4 tuning has come a long way in the last 15 years. The fact that you can get big bore Nickies and stroker cranks in them and punch them up to 3 liters is pretty sweet. There are ven EFI conversions for the Type 4. If you want to go all the way, you could even convert to a 6 cylinder fan shroud for better cooling. All of this would result in a *****in's fast 912E that no 911 could diss. Viva la Type 4.
