Drove home in a 993TT last night (NEW PICS)
Well.........my own version of one that is.
 After 2 years of work I finally drove my project home! Final tuning and dyno runs will probably be done next weekend.     I'll take some better pictures once it stops raining.

It is a thrill to see the culmination of this project which I have followed with your updates for so long. Incredible, beautiful fabrication -- it is truly a work of art as beautiful to look at as it is functional.
What were you initial driving impressions?

I've been wondering where you were on the build. The posts stopped a few months back.
End result looks fantastic! How does it sound? Is it tuned well enough to get on it?

Princeton,
I was just thinking of you & the great turbo project the other day. I am glad to see that you are back on the road again with that really fantastic ride! I may try to organize a day trip to Wimberly at the end of September to visit GTS Classic Seats in their new digs once they get settled in. Perhaps the green bullet would be up for a short road trip by then...? That engine looks like a work of art, dying to see it in person..
