Hi all,I'm new to the Porsche thing,without wanting to bore you all I've had bikes for years,still got a couple of Ducati's,but I had an accident and was off them for a while so bought a Boxster to get some kicks,well I was pretty impressed and really got into it and have recently bought a 91 964 Targa in red.I absolutely bloody love it,but want a bit more noise and power,that's a biker thing I think,any suggestions would be apppreciated,thanks in advance.

Hi and welcome :wave:

Where you from? Your local region can be a great help, so it may be worth popping along to their meeting.
