Over the last few months, we’ve been restoring this £5000 Porsche 911 to its former glory. We pulled it out of a scrapyard where it had been left because of some nasty vandalism, got it running for cheap, made it road-legal again, modified it, and then took it on a 1000-mile journey across Europe. Today, we’re in full preparation mode to take this car up against AutoAlex’s V6 MX-5 on track, but first up, we need to find out how much power this little old 911 is making.

    looking at the heavier soot on the passenger side, you may have some early bore scoring on the driver side cylinders. Pull the spark plugs and oil pan, then use a borescope to check the cylinder walls, ESPECIALLY #4 and #6. If there's scoring, take it to Hartech and they'll make it better.

    Lads, you might have air in the cooling system, next to the blue cap on the coolant tank, should be another back looking cap, with a lever on it, when cold, remove the blue cap, and lift and lock up the lever on the black cap, should hear some air gurgle away. Its the bleeder valve on the expansion tank. Hope this helps and might help with the over heating issue

    The best bit about that new exhaust is that it makes a lot more 'flat-six' noises and I think it might even sound better than it did without the muffler. Too many after-market exhausts are just generic loudness and noise, so for Rich to wing it and make something that makes it genuinely sound better is a great advert for his skill.
