    After spending a YEAR and well over $100k building my dream Manual 997 Porsche 911 Turbo, I FINALLY went to start it up, only for disaster to strike. We had no oil pressure...
    I assumed the engine was coming back apart yet again, but then decided to try one last fix...
    Will it work? Did I destroy the engine cranking it with no oil pressure?
    It's time to find out the fate of my 911 Turbo once and for all...

    The key is on the left for Le Mans starts, it’s a racing heritage thing. You would run to your car, jump in, use your right hand to put it in gear, left to start, drive off and buckle up.

      I read a while ago it was due to a copper shortage long ago and to save wire they moved it to the left side.

    As a Porsche 996 Turbo owner, I watched this series with great interest. I am very happy you have worked out most of the issues and can now enjoy it. It has turned out awesome! You have given me plenty to think about regarding mods to my own Porsche. First and foremost the bitchin’ carbon fiber roof panel conversion. Please keep the great content coming. I can’t wait for the next one.

    I have a 997 C2S 6-speed with the turbo’s carbon ceramic brake option and the brakes feel bad until warm. When cold, the brake petal doesn’t give good feedback and the brakes don’t bite. But when warm/hot, best brakes I’ve ever felt. Can’t make them fade when trying.

    When you pull those paper filters, it’s a better practice to cut them down once from top to bottom and spread out the paper. This makes it easy to see any trapped sparkly bits. Makes it easy to see the color of those bits to determine the possible issues by metal types. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

    Why didn't you plug the scan tool in and cycle the abs module whilst bleeding the brakes, it's a real thing, more people need to do it more often.

    Hope this isnt too late to say, but the coolant has to be vacuum filled on these cars. For one, it would have shown up the leak before filling. And the second thing is filling like you did can cause air pockets in the water jacket leading to hot spots & warping, putting you back to square one... Hope it goes well, as thats a stunning car now!

    watching this build has given me way too much confidence in tearing apart 911 turbos and putting them back together. I just ripped a 911 turbo engine out today and I think I am putting in an ls7 in its place.
