New Member - Guards Red Turbo

I’d like to introduce myself to the great community on this forum. I’ve been reading the posts and getting accustomed to the content – a wealth of information here. I’m a semi-active M5board.com member; I sold my Avus Blue E39 M5 and recently purchased a 2001 911 Turbo. The specs are:

2001 Guards Red Turbo
12k miles
Carbon fiber interior


















I upgraded the stock diverter valves to billet and the ECU goes out tomorrow for an Upsolute flash. I’m really enjoying the car thus far.


Another Chicago member on the site.

Congrats to your new car and welcome. Have your Z seen many miles after your turbo purchase?

Appreciate the warm welcome! GTR, the Z hasn't seen many miles since the purchase of the turbo. I think the M5 and turbo would make nice stable mates; that may be in the works.

I was also on the M5 board for a few years and had my E39 and turbo as mates for 2 years. Welcome here and enjoy the Turbo. You already know red is the best & fastest color.
