You say "1998" which is of course a base model, but I don't see a lot of 1998 or base when I look at it. You have made it as a new creation and fixed many of the 986 weak points.
Great job all around, from the drivetrain to paint/body to interior.

I have not put it on a Dyno, but it FEELS as though we added 45-50 HP. From the seat of my pants, it is a BEAST!

Thanks! Like I wrote earlier, people stop me all the time wondering what it is. Never fails to get attention and compliments!
