In this riveting episode of Adam LZ's automotive escapades, we witness the culmination of a laborious manual swap on his prized 964. With parts sourced from the eBay Motors catalog, the team meticulously pieces together the puzzle, preparing the car for its maiden voyage. From gluing down carpets to modifying pedal boards, every detail is scrutinized with the precision of a Swiss watchmaker. The anticipation builds as Adam introduces a custom part from Swine 11, adding a touch of flair to the manual transmission setup.

As the moment of truth approaches, Adam confronts the challenge of preventing the rear bumper from melting due to the lack of an exhaust system. Contemplating the addition of twin turbos, he tests a temporary exhaust solution, eager to unleash the full potential of the 964. Finally, the engine roars to life as Adam takes the wheel, reveling in the joys of manual shifting and newfound power. The dyno beckons, promising to reveal the true capabilities of the revamped machine.

A chance encounter at Amelia Island sparks reflection on the sentimental value of his beloved Porsche, reaffirming his commitment to keeping it for the long haul. The dyno results may not meet expectations, but Adam's ingenuity shines as he embarks on a quest to optimize performance through an unconventional airbox modification. With each rev of the engine, Adam's passion for cars and unwavering dedication to his craft are on full display, setting the stage for the next chapter in his automotive odyssey.
