Lol, I was just joking around with your wording.
Plus year, mileage, and model of Porsche make a big difference.

5psi would do beautiful things. 10 would do even more.

lol yeah, and using track days is a terrible reference since most people just get enjoyment from getting to drive the cars they own on track, not from trying to set a lap. Most were newer models though, probably worth more then the last rental house of mine I am trying to remodel and sell. Eating into my K swap budget.

Too bad that number is oil pressure

You can't make a WRX a lightweight coupe RWD corner rocket, you can't take the laziness out of an e46, you can't add a little room to your NA Miata, and you can't stop your e36 from losing its window regulators.

For $5,000 more than you buy the car for, , you can have 270whp on a totally stock car with ECUtek that handles amazing, has 6 gears, a limited slip differential, and the most common bolt pattern in the world.
No other car I've seen matches my needs so well, it's crazy. I just wish it had an inline 4 instead of a shitty boxer engine
I love that little shitty boxer. Absolutely love it.

It gives me the same mpg as a Corolla when driven like one. It makes my car as fast as a Cayman when driven as one.

Nothing inherently wrong with it I'm just not a fan. I like having my plugs and oil leaks up top

I like Mazda Skyactive G engines though. I wish Miata had a bit more space inside.
