Thanks to Pelican!

This weekend I installed a short shift kit, aux. air regulator and some aluminum gauge bezels in my Turbo. I have to tell you if it wasn't for this site I wouldn't done it. I purchased all the items (except gauge bezels)from Pelican after hearing they were easy updates.

So I get the short shift kit and one page of instructions for three different models (with Pic's - nothing against Weltmeister, but one page!). So I disassemble, no problem there. Get to remove the shift rod - problem. I couldn't get the pin out with the rod in the shift tower bracket. I sweat, swear, call a couple of Pcar mechanics, wait overnight. Sunday morning I log into the site and check tech tips for the shifter install. Lo and behold, complete run down. I print those pages out. I went back, removed the 22m lock nut and allen, voila, it works. Just what I wanted. A quicker throw through the gears.

While waiting to get the shift kit right, I installed the air regulator(also purchased through Pelican). I was experiencing high idle on cold days no matter how warm the engine was. This update solved that 100%.

Next was removing the gauges to replace the bezels. So I went back to the wonderful tech tips, printed out the instructions, and completed that project. Thanks again, Pelican.

Next week I hope to get the numeraled oil temp gauge (Pelican supplied) update done.

PS, No affiliation with Pelican, just a happy bbs user.

Being in a country where few people have even heard of what a Porsche is, I know the feeling of finding information to be used later. For excellent general information, visit: http://www.rennsportsystems.com/~porsche/1.html

On the topic of bezels.. Could someone point me in the right direction?? I'm looking to add some life to my interior with different colored or aluminum bezels.. Where can I find some??

http://www.imagineauto.com/ Is where I bought the billet aluminum parts for my turbo. They have a picture of most all parts installed. There is also some stainless steel and carbon fiber too. Good luck
