    Early Xmas Present

    Hey guess what I got ....is it a present from that nice mister Reeve?... wonder what that could be.

    Well here's the package: -

    Certainly looks intriguing. Let's have a look at the label: -

    Well that's in German but hey my luck could be in....that's an Audi number and it starts with 034!
    So maybe it could be something to make my S2 go faster

    Let's have a look at the part number:
    tn_RS2 MAF 004.JPG

    It's definitely made by Bosch but wait a minute ......that part number is different. 951.....now wait a minute is that a PPPPPPorsche?

    Hell yes it is

    951 was the RHD version of the Porsche 968 and guess what it shares the same Mass Air Flow Sensor as the RS2!

    OK I know everyone knows this but hey it's Christmas and the story was fun to tell!

    Yes the Bosch part number is the same on both cars

    Anyway here is the business end of my pressie: -

    Seriously folks.....that nice mist Reeve tells me that this was his last one and that they are scarce if you want them new....it is usually a sign of them going NLA. Well, i guess it had to happen: the airbox went NLA in 2011 and the injectors are no longer made by Bosch

    Oh well...hope you enjoyed the story and have a great Xmas!

    Cheers,

    John

    Your get this removed shortly like I did with a comment about pete reeve.

    The headgasgets that apparently went NLA are still available and over £50 cheaper than what he was ripping people off.

      Fairy nuff. Just reporting what was said to me and took things at face value.

        True, there's a lot of things that are apparently NLA but you can still buy them from the stealers for a good price generally better than the apparent last stock costs.
