It's all good.
Actually I am not very familiar with Porsche's of any model.
My 2000S is the only one I have ever had "hands on".
But I never have any issues with it so I don't have to dig very deep into it.
But an internal combustion engine is just an air pump. No matter what make of car it is in.
But I do know at least the basics of most systems on older cars like our Boxsters.
Things like EVAP, SAI, they are very similar from one make to the next.
So if you have good knowledge of the basic's of a system it's like a good foundation to a house. You can use and build on that knowledge no matter what make of car they are on.
Things like vacuum testing for diagnostics, using a vacuum gauge to set timing, or carbs on old school cars, compression testing, and general diagnostics I have been doing that for 50+ years.
Now electrics that's my weak spot
I know nothing, not a damn thing about turbo's, except they push air and are more or less free horse power.
