  • The biggest issue with my Cheap 997 Porsche 911 Turbo? It's blown up... well, it WAS blown up... Today we head back to AIM Performance and pick up my brand new 1000hp Mezger engine with an INSANE amount of go fast parts to boot!
    With too many 4 digit horsepower Porsche 911 Turbos under their belt to count, AIM gave this blown up hunk of metal the rebuild works and if you think it LOOKS good, just imagine how it's going to sound...
    After some key parts from @RennlineInc and @fcpeuro this not so poor Porsche is FINALLY ready for the engine to go bad in!

    @scraplifegarage Make sure you replace the rear toe eccentric bolts with block-off plates (Tarret). It's 2-fold because the eccentric is known to migrate, so you want to prevent that, as well as only 1 point of adjustment for the rear toe.
    Also, make sure to double check the bump-steer spacers you have on there also! (when performing alignment)

    Hi guys, I really enjoy your videos. I have only one question regarding your 911 Turbo build. Why you didn't get new forge pistons? You already got new forge rods. You're forgot to mention anything about the oil pump, specially after the milk shake situation. I know, that in order to save some CASH the engine builder said that there was no need to open the engine cranks, but if you're spending a big chunk of cash on the engine build and to be 100% sure that there are no more issues with anything else, I would rather have the cranks open, inspected and clean as well as the crank shaft and oil pump. Next year, I'll be doing something very similar to what you're doing but with a different platform and I feel your enthusiastic and very motivated behavior. There is no better feeling that that. I wish you and your team the best and I can't wait to see your 911 tearing those big Toyos 888. Take Care. Saludos from Puerto Rico.

      It looks like my previous comment got deleted.
      B16s have been backordered for over a year now. Takes months to get them. But occasionally rockauto will have them in stock. Have you checked there?
      My suggestion is to get them on order now.
      Do you need to replace your existing b4s or is it that you just want to upgrade? If you need to replace your existing b4s you could go with the b6s and some eibach springs until the b16s come in. Then sell the b6s and eibach springs to get some money back.

I would go with the 2 piece rotor to be honest just for maintenance cost overall instead of carbon ceramics if you decide to go that route. Because the price difference is between $4,000 to $10,000 for a set of 4.

    -IF your only carbon fiber is the mirrors I think it will make the car look..dorky... o.k. I just saw the c.b. air vents... and almost at the end of the video the hood. Everything is going well in happy town now.
    - While the underside is open how about some black goo for the finished look and rust protection.
    - And while you are at it how about getting the rust off the brake area.
    - Do you know there are those companies out there on the internet that have PORSCHE and BRAMO name decals you can put on the calipers BUT the Porsche ones are really hard to find because of infringement on property rights. One company cheats by spelling PORSCHE ..PORCHE or something like that.
    - White roll cage = no bueno and that goes for white brake calipers which will look Okey (think Oklahoma)
