Testing, Testing 123

Some of you may have received an email from us earlier this month curiously named "testing". We were just running a systems test for an email distribution system that will help us send out our newsletter emails more efficiently. Many apologies if it got you wondering what it was all about. All systems are now go!

Performance Chips for your Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera

The Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera was the first road going Porsche boasting a digital engine management system, sometimes referred to as a DME or ECU. This paved the way for a new breed of performance modification that became known as mapping, or re-mapping to be correct. One of our members 'Ras', AKA ItsAnInvestment has just completed a performance Chip install on his own 3.2 Carrera and has kindly written a "How to Guide" which you can find in our Porsche Folio. If your looking for more BHP and better torque curves then this article is worth a read.


It's a Wrap

If your pride and joy, like many, is tucked away in your garage for the winter but you still need to get around the car to get the kids bikes or the lawnmower, then you need more than a car cover to keep your Porsche protected and pristine. Now you can buy a complete protective wrap for your Porsche, aptly named the Carband. You can contact Carband via their P101tv Channel by visiting the link below.


Need to Rebuild your 930 Engine?

There is no doubt, the Porsche 911 engine is a technological master piece. They pack a lot of power considering their compact and light weight design. They are technical engines to say the least. The prospect of rebuilding a turbo version from the 930 series might therefore seem a daunting task. Not for P101tv's Autobahn Cars who have kindly uploaded a great series of videos showing us how to rebuild a 930 engine. Even if your not contemplating rebuilding a 930 engine, this is a must see video series and will give you a great insight into the inner workings of these awesome engines.


What a Great looking GT3R

We've included a picture of this amazing 997 GT3R in this months newsletter simply because we think it looks stunning. The picture was taken by our very own lpellecc while at West Palm Beach, Florida. The car is a street legal RSR created from a 2011 GT3RS.


Driveable Art!

Art you can drive, or at least want to drive! When we saw this upload by P101tv member QSM911 we just had to share it with you all. For a Porsche enthusiast it doesnt get any better - a beautiful Porsche 996 GT3 that you can hang on the wall, or if your lucky enough take it for a drive.


Magnus Walker Promo. An obsession with the Porsche 911

In last month's issue our featured video was the Magnus Walker Promotional video, entitled 'An obsession with the Porsche 911'. It's a great little video of Magnus' obsession with the early 911's and features some great footage of his collection. Well, we have since stumbled accross his website and thought we should let you know so you can take a peek. It's definitely worth a visit for any Porsche enthusiast.
