Thank you. I am glad you are enjoying it! I'll post up some vids of how the new exhaust system sounds. I don't think anybody else will have the same setup anywhere.

wow i'm so jealous of the facility
sad to see her go through surgery BUT it is for the best

fortunately it's just the turbos right?
the cams and valves and guides and piston heads and cylinders blah blah are all tip top?

i'm sure you're going to replace all the gaskets and seals since it's all opened up, but as long as the metal is okay, it shouldn't be too bad and LEARN from this lesson: D R I I I I V E it

Hahaha, they do have a nice premises to work from
It is only the one turbo actually. I just replaced both as preventative maintenance.

Yes, they are doing all the seals, o-rings and gaskets. Everything internally looked perfect.

Don't worry, it will get driven A LOT more now. Need to get my money's worth

Thanks for sharing some pics with us Mike, you know how much I love the 993.

You will probably get out some more horsepowers now that you replaced everything
