TPC Racing is Teaching an Old Dog NEW TRICKS! 986S w/120k miles going TURBO!

Recently we got in a local 986S Tip that is in immaculate condition. Odometer reads just over 120k miles, but you would never know it. The one owner car has been well looked after its entire life and all of the miles were long highway miles. Note, the engine runs like new and it is the original.

Rather than looking for a new car the owner decided it was time to teach the car some new tricks... With our ATP:L(non-intercooled turbo system).

Car put down ~200whp on our dyno as a baseline.

Here are some pictures as we began stripping the car.





Now with some parts!





I will continue updating this thread as we make progress.
