Follow your heart! :D

Hey Guys & Gals,

Since I know you alot of you pretty well, I'd like to share some good news with you all.

At my current place of employment, things arent going so well, sales down, renewals not happening so I'll be let go July 1st.... HOWEVER...! Theres a silver lining, I decided to take a chance and do something I've wanted to do since I ever cared about cars, I'll be working as the a Tech for Pcars/FastForward Wheels in Monterey Park doing service maintenance, repairs and upgrades to Porsches!!!

I was tired of sitting on my butt all day and doing nothing sitting in front of the computer. I needed to construct my own fork in this straight highway that is my life. Luckly, I have loads and loads of tools and knowledge to work on these beautiful Porsches at the new shop. Also I used to work part time for several independant shops in the harbor area, even afew majors like Nissan/Infinity, so this isnt really a leap off the deep end for me but more like a continuation of my longtime love of wrenching on exotic highend cars.

Im just so excited to finally work on the cars that I love and get paid for it. :cheers:

Mine may be the LOWEST!

2005 987S, new July 05, current mileage 4400, too much time spent on my BMW and Ducati bikes. :D

987S may be for sale, any interest?

On my MY05 987 S, I have 12732 on mine. I want to drive it more I am really busy. Last March it only had 4200 miles. I sold my other car and drove it for a while and managed to put 6K on it. Now it just sits all the time again as I bought another vehicle.

Mike, did you get my last PM, about 15 min ago?

I just had the Porsche Sports Exhaust installed at a local Porsche specialty shop (much cheaper than any dealer quoted I may add). The last steps in the instructions call for the engine computer to be told the car has this exhaust, which I would have to go to a dealer to do. The bypass pipes are open now when I have the sport button on and it sounds very good. I am wondering if the engine computer part only activates the feature where the bypass pipes open more as the RPMs increase. If this is the case I think I would simply not have that done as it sounds great as it is. Does anyone know if that is what the engine computer activation does? Thanks.
