Tyson does great work, doesn't he?

Still in love with that beastie after all those miles?

mjshira 10-12-2005 04:10 PM

it is the best!

Joeaksa 10-12-2005 04:13 PM

James,

Looks great! Any chance for a photo of the muffler and pipes? Believe Tyson made a second port that can be open or closed and wondered how he worked it out.

That is one cool car. It pretty much covers all the bases on what I would like to do to my car. I hope to see it in person someday.

Congratulations, James! I would come help you christen the beast, but you up and moved halfway across the country. I expect a plethora of stories as you enjoy your wonderous new 911.

mjshira 10-12-2005 04:25 PM

I averaged about 90-100 most of the time, notice how low the RPM's are. MPG was about 25

gas, gas and more gas at 3+ a gallon, but hey after a 3.6 swap it seems cheap!

no leaks!

mjshira 10-12-2005 04:37 PM

JoeA you can see it in one of the rear pics above, look closely.

pwd72s 10-12-2005 04:38 PM

Wish my stock 2.4 S got 25mpg @ 85-90...hell, wish she'd get 20!
@ 90, 15-18 is about average, but then I'm turning 4300 or so...

DW SD 10-12-2005 04:39 PM

How about some shots of the muffler?

thank you to everyone on the board for the help in getting my dream from idea to completion!

mjshira 10-12-2005 04:46 PM

I will get some shots tomorrow (of the muffler)

pwd72s 10-12-2005 04:49 PM

I love that last pic...Tyson, a wee bit scruffy himself, hands on hips. Wonder what he's thinking? Perhaps: "How can I get this car back?" :)

mjshira 10-12-2005 04:53 PM

yeah, it was emotional for all concerned

bell 10-12-2005 06:07 PM

fantastic james :)

The Chef 10-12-2005 06:32 PM

James,
It looks great with the deco on the side! It wouldnt work on my car but it definately works on Scruffy.
