Porsche 912E Intake Boots Don’t Exist, So I Built My Own
On a recent road trip (before covid-19 lockdown) my 912E was having some major trouble. It was missing and bucking in the midrange. The little 2-liter was running fine at wide open throttle, and it ran fine at idle, so I figured it had to be a major vacuum leak. Since the engine was recently rebuilt with all new vacuum lines, I figured the culprit …

These days, it takes a ludicrous amount of thrust to get the desensitized public to drop its collective jaw. If the muscular 992 Turbo S and its 640-horsepower engine don't raise eyebrows, one must be reminded what the car represents.

Few tracks on the North American continent have done quite so much for Porsche and endurance racing as Sebring International Raceway. Nestled among orange groves, chemical processing plants, and airplane manufacturers, this bumpy former piece of airstrip is one of the hardest testers of a vehicle.
