Almost. All engine work is done. Car will be dropped back off at the body shop for new hood and installation of rear bumper. Car will also have a few things realigned and then off to the dyno to get the figures.

We ran into some issues with the inter coolers, 997 inter cooler ducting and the brackets. We are trying to find a fix currently. We are trying to modify the intercooler bracket to work with the my 996 gt2 intercooler and line up correctly with the 997 intercooler ducting and brackets.

this is the worst part of large projects... when it gets close enough that it seems like it should be done any day and the last little details that make everything right take just as long as the big stuff did... can't wait to see it done

Yeah the project is taking about 4 months longer then I expected due to a few small issues.

well we got down to the root of the main problem. Seems like the 996 intercoolers will not mate up to the 997 ducting, and 997 intercooler brackets.

My only options are to find aftermarket 997 turbo intercoolers that are more beefy then the stock units, or purchase the 997 gt2 intercoolers.
