Synopsis: Dropped the motor out of Cossey’s 996 today, swapped intake components, repaired/replaced shit, put motor back in car, went out for afternoon test drive. Car now hits consistent 1.6 bar. Tires doing all they can to maintain traction by the sounds they emit under acceleration. The clutch is not slipping.

For the past ~5 weeks Chris’s car has only been running about .9 bar.
