  • This week, Ethan, Jack, and Edwin set to work getting our abandoned super cheap Porsche 924 Supercharged, which had up until recently been sitting abandoned in a field for at least 20 years. Will we be making a mistake but modifying the poor 924 before working on any of the other issues, or will it make cool boost noises without an issue?

    • @12pagani
      @12pagani Před 5 měsíci

      How does the kit work with the factory cis fuel and ignition systems? I have a rebuilt Mercedes 560sel with the cis fuel system and I want to supercharge it one day , but there seems to be almost zero information on low boost and retaining the cis and the timing under boost. I’m not doing stand-alone as I’m in California so I need stealth and it to be easily removable for emissions

    For the block holes that needed retapping, you can use a bore brush (gunsmithing) on a drill with some PB to super clean them pre-thread tapping/cleaning. But if they so bad that all the original threads have deteriorated you gotta bore and helicoil it.
