The suspension was upgraded with Bilstein shocks and Netrix spring plates.
The result of the work performed has increased the performance to an estimated 425
horsepower.
All subsequent services have been performed by Rice's Performance Porsche.
In 2018, the 930 Turbo was shown at the Orange Coast PCA White Glove Concours where it won first in class, and again at the San Diego PCA White Glove Concours where it placed second in class.
The paintwork is in exceptional condition and shows incredibly well with a modified front valance, integrated fog lights, and original glass.
The upholstery is all original and displays the correct amount of patina for its age with no rips or tears.

An adjustable boost and fuel controllers have been added underneath the radio unit along with an Air/Fuel sensor mounted underneath the speedometer.

Mechanically, powered by its original 3.
3-liter turbo engine (Type 930/61) which has been modified to a 3.
4-liter specification and is capable of outputting over 425hp.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through its matching 4-speed manual transmission (Type 930/34) for all Turbos with a ZF limited slip differential.
Complete with a toolkit, original collapsible spare wheel, jack, 1978 Turbo owner's manual, original warranty and maintenance booklet, logbook of work performed including special custom fuel and boost diagrams, and a Certificate of Authenticity.
