Welcome to FTE!

I hate to side track but I think you should take a look at some of the K+N turbos (I.E. what happened) in the Diesel sections. I think that you'd be much happier with a Napa 6637.

Should be an interesting search.

BigF350 How a Porsche should be. They kind of lost me with the 996.

You're not the only one.

Totally agree about the porsche. Have any pictures!?

I ended up with the EX!
So far so good, averaged over 18mpg on the way down and have yet to fill the tank (a week later after driving from atlanta) I LOVE this thing!

Congrats on the new ride!

From the pics I'd guess that it's an '03. Did you go with a gasser or the diesel?
