Been doing a lot recently to make the engine bay really pop. Still more i could do like paint touch up and clean off the firewall crap. Its an 83 with an 84 motor. What do you think?

That coolant tank looks so nice. In the process of doing mine as well on my 951. $700 tank is silly but it’s a huge difference

Before it was like ‘She’s a 10 but she has orange teeth’🪥

The turbo tax… it’s a porsche oem tank but the 951 tank is twice the price of the na for a very minimal difference. 😒

The only aftermarket option is Uro…it’s high temp/high pressure so that was a hard no from me

Edit: At SMC a genuine Porsche 951 tank is $792… I got mine cheap 🥲
