Don’t worry about your Porsche. My wife and I bought 1982 911SC in 1986 with 14k miles. Twenty nine years later we sold it with 195k for more than we originally paid. I miss that girl. The car, I still have the wife!
@ mine/ours was pretty much trouble free. Only let me down 2 times. I forgave her. We are talking about the car mind you. We sold it when we left California to try retirement in South Carolina.
Big fan of all your videos, tricks of the trade, As a technician for many many many years, your first mistake with the exhaust manifold or turbo studs was not heating it Using oxygen and acetylene heat heat it until it’s glowing and then try to remove, I have always had success with high mileage vehicles with this method.
The other trick I've used (shout out to my friend Tyson) was to melt candle wax onto the head of the bolt. The liquid wax gets into the threads and makes the bolts easier to remove. Used it on my brother's aftermarket Yoshimura exhaust on his motorcycle that had hex head bolts (why???) and seen it used on Merkur exhaust manifold bolts.
I like hearing the people talking in the background, makes me feel like I am really there and it reminds me of when I used to hold the flashlight for my dad except you don't yell at me.
Rock solid is not the term for a 911. The coined term is "Bullet Proof". I drove my 73 911E from 23K to 178K, still going but leaks oil. From LA to British Columbia with my daughter in the back seat (3 people). LA to Nova Scotia with three people in car, to Miama Florida, across the country several times. From LA to Tip of Baja, we took a ferry across to the mainland and then back up to LA. The car needed gas, oil and TLC but never failed us. No AC and original radio, but it was stolen and I never replaced it till recently.
Congrats bro. Welcome to Porsche family. I drive my turbo s daily racking up to 75k miles so far and it still drives like new. I have one year warranty left so will see.
I found this way more fascinating than I thought I would have! I've always been curious "how it all worked" with Porsche's and their engine being in the rear. It was really fascinating to see what it was like with the back end removed!
Love it. The 991.1 Turbo cars are going to prove the test of time for sure. Just a heads up you really need to have the battery registered to the car. The car doesn't know it's a lithium battery and it will not charge correctly.
Tubi!!! That’s a SWEET sounding ITALIAN MADE light exhaust!!! I got one for my 997.1 C4S. Congratulations! I enjoy your channel & your builds Rich. Keep ‘em coming.
218,730 miles on my 2014 Cayman S. Rock solid, and has never failed to start, stop, and go. Never left me stranded, and never fails to put a smile on my face all these years later. The reliability has almost been disconcerting! 😂 Also, I didn’t know you were in NH now. My neck of the woods!
@ depends what you consider major? In my opinion, the only major service was the PDK fluid and filter and gear oil. Other than that, just regularly scheduled maintenance! Engine or trans has never been out, original water pump, alternator, etc. I did have a walnut blasting carbon cleaning done earlier this year due to carbon buildup symptoms, and just had the axles replaced due to multiple loose clamps and grease leaks leading to vibrations from compromised CV joints…
you can drive all of the cars you want but noting compares to the experience of driving a Porsche. It´s just one of those cars that you try out and you get hooked for life. Driving the 911s in winding roads is just mind blowing!
8:26 that new air filter will slowly destroy that engine those do not do the same type of filtering that the paper elements do and will slowly dust the engine causing it to burn oil and slowly lose compression I speak from experience on multiple vehicles one of which being my own
I always feel like the 80K mile example is the ONE to buy lol. The fact that it made it there is proof that it's reliable and [hopefully] has all the problems resolved already.
On my 6th and 7th Porsche because they have been so reliable. im on my 3rd 911, had a Cayenne, 2 Panamera, and a Taycan 4S. The Taycan so far is the only one that has been nontrouble free
@CreamyAmazon because I use them. I had my first 911, first Panamera , and Cayenne at the same time. I kept the Panamera for 120k miles and traded it in on a new Panamera 4S. Kept the Cayenne S till 220k miles then sold it. Sold my 997 (115k miles) for about a 15k profit. Bought a 991.2 and modded it, traded that in on my 992. I had the 991.2 and last Panamera 4S at the same time. Red-light runner totaled the Panamera 4S...replaced that with a Taycan 4S. So right now, I have a 992 S and Taycan 4S
@@karkoncierge7585 "I have a 992 S and Taycan 4S" Damn, how're you feeling about the Taycan, most of the coverage on it I have seen is fairly negative.
@jimmydesouza4375 well...i think dynamically it's one of the best EVs. It drives fantastic by any car standards. Range is lower, but fine for city driving ( I'm in Houston).

It’s good to hear that a high mileage turbo is not a bad option. I have been thinking of trade in my 992 4cs for a 991.2 turbo S with about 30K miles on the odometer at a local dealership but was worry about about that 30K miles on it.
Great content, as always. I actually have a ‘15 C4S that I bought to use as my daily this past March (2024). Mine had 103k miles on it when I bought it, and I put about 1,500 miles a month on it. As of 11/5, it has 115k, trouble free miles. Great cars, pretty easy to work on, (oil changes are a breeze) incredibly well made, and the handling is, well, you know. It’s an incredible car that, if maintained, will go 200-300k miles.
From what I understand Porsche's profit margins are some of the biggest of any car manufacturer per unit. Somewhere around forty to sixty percent depending on the model and the trim level that you're getting. That's fucking ridiculous
My wife has put 38k miles in 3 years on her used 32k original miles, 981 6 speed manual Porsche. 71k now. Solid car. Gotta spend some now for serpentine belt. belt tensioner. Plugs, CV boots.
If your CV boots are already torn, loose or leaking, you may end up having to replace the entire axles. Both sides of mine leaked at one point over the years, and by the time I caught them, either too much grease had escaped, or too much water or debris had gotten in (or both), that I was getting heavy vibrations from the drivetrain under WOT at highway speeds. Each time I caught one, I would pack more grease in there and replace the clamp, but the damage had already been done. It took me years to pull the trigger on replacing the axles, because they’re so expensive and there’s no guarantee they would fix the vibrations without installing them and finding out. Thankfully in my case, they eliminated all vibrations and restored 100% smooth acceleration to the car. I forget if it ever felt as smooth as glass as this!
Damn, my 997turbo looks simple to work on compared to yours. Looks good, sounds good. I’ve used those filters for years on my car, zero issues. I don’t oil and reuse, just replace with new, $100 eBay.
@@troy3456789 Yep. No torches is going to beat being able to make a bolt cherry hot in a tight spot in less than 2 minutes. When i first bought mine i tested it on a half inch iron pipe, i got it glowing under 30 seconds. Keep in mind it work best on ferrous metal and has almost no effect on non-ferrous metals.

Put a screen on the side air intakes. Sense you are capable of it without a doubt. Just make them yourself and do a double screen like a two stage filter.
i came here expecting typical car tuber content: "watch me swap my turbo porsche engine with this junkyard 3800 v6! then i will spackle paint it a lime green and cigarette ash color! see you at SEMA!" rich: time for common sense upgrades to the most reliable car i own. me: 😮 💯 👍🙌👏
Nice video. I like the blue color too. I have a 997 turbo. Getting ready to change out the oem heavy bulky exhaust. I didn’t know they had such light weight batteries I’m gonna do that too. Did you notice a big different in weight loss with the things you did? Thx
Love that interior with the deviated centers! I was looking for one that was sapphire blue but ended up with white, mine's still under CPO warranty too so I've avoided any mods (or removing the bumpers) but I appreciate you showing how you did yours. They are fun cars.
@ there most certainly are Stage 1/2/3 tunes without crackle. They typically call the ones with pops and bangs a “crackle” tune and you can add it on to whatever stage tune you want. All it is doing is adding extra fuel which ends up in your hot exhaust and ignites.
@@Tdfries you're not even close to correct. They REMOVE fuel and remove ignition timing for a period of time.... If you ADD fuel then you get "burbles", on a return fuel system. When you have one loud bang that's because the fuel system is returnless and it simply shuts the injectors off. You just hoppin' on the anti pops and bangs bang-wagon, and it shows.
there is no substitute. the 911 turbo platform displays power so uniquely there is nothing else like it. these cars can match or best cars with 100-200 more hp than a 911 needs. these car are so outstanding and as Betim said "mod friendly" any bit of upgraded parts you will feel. no other car can take bolt-ons and have gains like 911 turbos with mods. now everything I've said is mostly applicable to 993 and then all the h2o cars. what other platform can do 230+ mph in a half-mile. or a Ruf car starts with a 911 that Porsche took their best work and would throw it all in the used parts bin because they thought Alois and his ultra performance development make them the best sportscars in the world. a turbo with a filter and a OEM basic flash to 1800hp John Bray 4.3l stroker builds will handle launch control like dirty girls. they take it and beg for more and harder, time after time. no other car can go from stock to questionably legal and still go to the store grab a bag of groceries and handle the snow covered roads on the way home after a weekend at a track on the opposite coast that you drove it to. they are weapons grade sportscars and are the best overall car you can have. nice job rich sounds lovely!!! cheers
put a wide body kit just with silicon and a reciprocating saw to cut the fenders, maybe just glue in a silicon trailer hitch and put some stickers on the windshield this will increase its value
The "a lot of the sponsors don't allow me to get cool stuff" statement when talking about the exhaust seems like a very interesting topic that I wish you would expand on. Cause I would think that if you had a sponsor that didn't make Porsche 911 turbo parts than you wouldn't have any kind of conflict with another company giving you parts.
Youll be surprised how well heat works on rusted bolts, lubes usually don't do very well with stuff over 100k. PB blaster is usually the go to even that doesn't work most times.
PB Blaster original is my favorite penatrating fluid. Shoot it on, let it sit for 10 mins, shoot it again, wait 5 minutes, and impact it off at the lowest setting. Cheers and good luck!
Watch project farm on all those penetrating oils. I can't remember how well pb blaster fared. I think liquid wrench penetrating oil fared best, and pb blaster ended up 2nd to last among the oils he tested on rusty nuts and bolts. A mix of automatic transmission fluid and acetone ended up a close 2nd behind liquid wrench. PB blaster didn't do as well as WD-40. I hate WD-40 for anything and I don't own it. Koil ended up in dead last.
if you don't already know, soak the rusty bolts in pb blaster and slightly loosen then tighten and repeat so the plaster can get in there and they usually break loose. Thanks, for sharing the video its definitely a dream car for me and you got a top tier color.
@@rustler08 Had it before where I can't break a bolt free, given it a little tweak in the tighten direction and then backed it off. Bolts aren't always over tightened, generally I find it is corrosion that locks them up. I only do this when bolts are stuck not as a general tip for loosening non problem bolts.
I don’t think I am or ever will be a fan of the pop tunes. It’s ok at the track from a GT Pro car sure. But it seems like a gimmick on the street. Besides that I’m liking this car and how you go about things Rich. The middle finger zip ties and the well placed S-word is great seasoning for this Porsche steak
i got one of those magnetic induction heater tools to remove rusted nuts. it looks like a big soldering iorn with a wire coil on one end.tou place the coil over the nit and it passes a crrent through the coil which heats up the nut till its cherry red .ten yo spray it up with your pb blaster wd40 or whatever you use and spin her off

Hahahaha. That was a flashback for me. To funny and true.
You spelled "fleshlight" wrong.
I'm used to driving Fords that are over 10 years old, I just consider the check engine light as cabin mood lighting.
😀 Yes Sir 🙃
That light is just the car telling you that there is an engine, all good
Black duct tape also works.
I had the check engine light on my 2004 Toyota Avalon for over 10 years. Just a stupid emissions thing. Didn’t care

Have you been resurrected?

Broh, don’t be a slave to the algorithm… 😂
hooray, melanin
Prove it
Nice video. 100k Turbo is really amazing. Don’t about more SW over tuning, maybe not advised! YMMV
Watching this I realized how much of modern cars is just plastic covers. Jeez that's a lot money down the drain.
there is no substitute. the 911 turbo platform displays power so uniquely there is nothing else like it. these cars can match or best cars with 100-200 more hp than a 911 needs. these car are so outstanding and as Betim said "mod friendly" any bit of upgraded parts you will feel. no other car can take bolt-ons and have gains like 911 turbos with mods. now everything I've said is mostly applicable to 993 and then all the h2o cars. what other platform can do 230+ mph in a half-mile. or a Ruf car starts with a 911 that Porsche took their best work and would throw it all in the used parts bin because they thought Alois and his ultra performance development make them the best sportscars in the world. a turbo with a filter and a OEM basic flash to 1800hp John Bray 4.3l stroker builds will handle launch control like dirty girls. they take it and beg for more and harder, time after time. no other car can go from stock to questionably legal and still go to the store grab a bag of groceries and handle the snow covered roads on the way home after a weekend at a track on the opposite coast that you drove it to. they are weapons grade sportscars and are the best overall car you can have. nice job rich sounds lovely!!! cheers
I don't understand the fascination with crackles pops and bangs out of the exhaust. It seems like you're just asking to get pulled over.
Same
Yall are cry babies fr 😂
It's quite literally childish fun. When you are in the driver's seat in control of those noises, you can't help but giggle. Never gets old
My stock 2018 991.2 GTS crackles & pops when it's set in Sport mode. It does not do it in Sport+ though.
put a wide body kit just with silicon and a reciprocating saw to cut the fenders, maybe just glue in a silicon trailer hitch and put some stickers on the windshield this will increase its value
1:31 what? Porsches are driven a ton. They are just kept as well so you may not see them on the second hand market.
They’re commonly driven in Europe

Just Subscribed after hearing you on Here and Now. I drive a 22-year-old car and I hope to learn a lot from you!
I have the same Porsche, around 130k miles. Runs perfectly! No lights.
All the lights blew out at 129k miles 😂
be careful when you go drive at night bro!
Man, clean that shop!
The "a lot of the sponsors don't allow me to get cool stuff" statement when talking about the exhaust seems like a very interesting topic that I wish you would expand on. Cause I would think that if you had a sponsor that didn't make Porsche 911 turbo parts than you wouldn't have any kind of conflict with another company giving you parts.
That interior is remarkably awesome.
Youll be surprised how well heat works on rusted bolts, lubes usually don't do very well with stuff over 100k. PB blaster is usually the go to even that doesn't work most times.
I love the license plate!
PB Blaster original is my favorite penatrating fluid. Shoot it on, let it sit for 10 mins, shoot it again, wait 5 minutes, and impact it off at the lowest setting. Cheers and good luck!
also tap it with a hammer (using a tool between the nut & hammer)
Brought some CRC freeze off and it's the first thing I reach for now
Watch project farm on all those penetrating oils. I can't remember how well pb blaster fared. I think liquid wrench penetrating oil fared best, and pb blaster ended up 2nd to last among the oils he tested on rusty nuts and bolts. A mix of automatic transmission fluid and acetone ended up a close 2nd behind liquid wrench. PB blaster didn't do as well as WD-40. I hate WD-40 for anything and I don't own it. Koil ended up in dead last.
Project farm did not test JB 80 in his tests. I don't know how well it penetrates, but youtube videos show it may have superior lubrication.
17:45 For a sec there, I thought you were gonna do a Derek from Vice Grip Garage.... "hyatsah! ...it's got a go handle."
Any Stephon updates? How is he?
Unfortunately, Stevon passed away last month.
He has his own YT channel. I don't think he's coming back
@@utbigpapa Thanks dude, i had no idea. I'll look it up, whats it called?
@@jase976boxeclectic
"box electric" is his (new) channel..
2nd best viewed upload is explanation..
any difference in fuell consumption?
Those pop pops would get real old real quick
They really don't...only does it when you do it kinda on purpose.
Yeah you gotta full throttle and then let off right after, if you’re driving normally it doesn’t do it nearly as much
@@rmp5s For everyone else. For me it took the time he took to back out of the garage.
@@DiscoFang ...then don't make it do that...
My '18 RS3 has SOME factory pops and bangs on decel, but a lot less than that tune. I hope the Protune can cut down on those.
I got my 911 in January of this year (used 992.1 C4 GTS) and I've put on over 10k miles YTD - its meant to be driven, not hidden!
Keep enjoying it!
I have always wanted one as well but I knew the maintenance would get me. You give me hope!!!!!!! I love your channel
if you don't already know, soak the rusty bolts in pb blaster and slightly loosen then tighten and repeat so the plaster can get in there and they usually break loose. Thanks, for sharing the video its definitely a dream car for me and you got a top tier color.
The issue is, they never slightly loosen :P
@@FizzGamingProductions they do when they are red hot 🔥
@@FizzGamingProductions Sometimes it pays to tighten before loosening. I know that sounds counterintuitive but getting any movement is good.
@@robmanueb. Unless you know how a bolt works.
@@rustler08 Had it before where I can't break a bolt free, given it a little tweak in the tighten direction and then backed it off. Bolts aren't always over tightened, generally I find it is corrosion that locks them up. I only do this when bolts are stuck not as a general tip for loosening non problem bolts.
Man... that is really nice 👌🏽 💙
My old boss has a 911 C4S with 256,000 miles on it and he knows absolutely nothing about cars lol.
He’s rich then
good mods - you should see about e85 - run cooler
Glad to hear you'll be putting those cats back on :)
Got help the environment bro hahaha!
I don’t think I am or ever will be a fan of the pop tunes. It’s ok at the track from a GT Pro car sure. But it seems like a gimmick on the street. Besides that I’m liking this car and how you go about things Rich. The middle finger zip ties and the well placed S-word is great seasoning for this Porsche steak
i got one of those magnetic induction heater tools to remove rusted nuts. it looks like a big soldering iorn with a wire coil on one end.tou place the coil over the nit and it passes a crrent through the coil which heats up the nut till its cherry red .ten yo spray it up with your pb blaster wd40 or whatever you use and spin her off
I love Rich ! , the fact that he kept doing pulls made my day! lol no one else does that shit lol
I love the EPA mandated comment at 15:00 👀👀👀
I'm sure Uncle Rich totally did that.
Yeah, and I missed the part of the video with the welding of the cats. Maybe he forgot to add to the edit. 😉
Love those pops and bangs uncle Rich!
Very surprised you never used launch control.
Burnouts are more fun.
Sounds like a jiffy pop or orville reddenbacher tune..Is that how cobb tunes sound?
Drilling the turbo, not covering the inlet
Does 11 launches, engine fan disconnected
Madlad
gave me Matt Armstrong vibes where you could litterally see metal shaving fall into the internals!
Thats not the inlet bro, its the exhaust side.
he drilled the HOT side, everything that falls on it will be expelled down the exhaust.
@@rodsilva80 it can still jam inside the housing tho 🤔🤔
I bought my Cayenne Turbo 12 years ago at 28000 miles and now it has 201000 miles. Porsches are really reliable cars
I’ll bet that battery was deliberately oversized to help balance out the rear engine design. Drive steady!
100% with all that weight in the back... and Rich is a low-weight guy also!
So long as he doesn't disable traction control, he should be fine
Love this channel hope you are extremely successful.
Pop bangs on a Porsche is an instant fail, what are you yearning to be 18 again lol.
Excessive, but not as excessive as a pop and bang tune
Yeah not cool.
they do it stock- you just hear it more with the exhaust. All 991.1+ turbo's have overrun in the exhaust, so do all the regular 911's.
Ya but it only does it in sport plus mode or whatever it is called, best of both worlds
Yeah it sounds terrible
love the plate! took me sec... I'm in MA, north shore. we should chat about german car stuff! maybe you can help me with something!
Keep the great videos up! Always love watching them ^^
