These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

hi all, not been very active on here for a while but thought id return to update, im currently the owner of 2x 996 turbos, 1 is completely standard, which ive owned for the last 3 plus years. the other (new) is a x50 with aero, which i recently bought from collecting cars auction, for what on the face of it looked a bargain, however its already been to my local indy after the drive home revealed it needed a new clutch, (which of course the seller knew nothing about!!! yeh right) . My other one having full porsche main dealer history and being standard i always wanted to keep that way. this one however i think im happy to do a few upgrades, so started this thread as a way of keeping track.. the first of which is the upgraded performance clutch kit from design911. other change i have already made is to replace the x50s anthracite wheels with my turbos silver wheels the anthracite wheels had brand new N rated tyres fitted within the last 50 miles or so,, but hopefully that will be a good selling point on my standard turbo, rather than me mess on taking the tyres off to swap accross. hopefully i can find a new home for my standard turbo in the spring/ summer, until then im happy to keep both. Photos of them both below

POST 2Original post

POST 3Original post

POST 4Original post

Silver wheels every day, don't like grey or black..... old man dyndrome

POST 5Original post

I just wanted to say that it looks so much nicer on the silver wheels :thumb:

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks. I'd love to have a straight line traffic light blast before my other one is sold though... I think there would only be 1 winner. My x50 boosts at upto 1.2bar. So I suspect its been remapped at some point. I think my standard one is 0.7 I think.

POST 9Original post

X50 looks very nice but what's the details on your standard car? I've just started looking for another 996/7 Turbo. ETA: Ignore that, just seen the classifieds
