In this episode of Car Throttle, the lads take on the challenge of reviving a Porsche 924, the epitome of budget motoring. With hopes of squeezing out some extra power, they first put the car on the dyno to see what it's got left. Predictions are thrown around, with guesses ranging from 70 to 80 horsepower. But alas, the results are underwhelming, as the Porsche only manages to muster a measly 72.8 horsepower. Disappointing, indeed.
Undeterred by the lackluster performance, the team sets their sights on supercharging the 924. They dive into the installation process, armed with a supercharger kit from a company called The 924. With parts in hand and determination in their hearts, they embark on the journey of transforming this budget Porsche into a force to be reckoned with.
But before they can unleash the power of forced induction, they encounter a series of challenges along the way. From cleaning the engine bay to replacing worn-out components, the lads tackle each task with their signature enthusiasm. They even take a moment to clean the windows, because what's the point of supercharging a car if you can't see out of it, right?
As the episode progresses, the team's perseverance pays off. They manage to fix the wipers, tick off items from their to-do list, and make significant progress on the Porsche project. With each step forward, the car begins to transform from a neglected relic into a machine with potential. And while the road to supercharging may be long and winding, the lads remain determined to unleash the true potential of this budget Porsche. Stay tuned for the next episode, where the real fun begins.
