[928uk] What to do?

[Richard Armstrong]

The inlet manifold is magnesium, and coating it is not as simple as, 
say, aluminium. Talk to the finishers and get their advice. When I took 
mine off the paint just fell off in large flakes.

Don't get your knock sensors from Porsche, they are twice the price of 
Bosch direct sourced ones

Ultrasonic cleaning of the injectors and start valve (under the plenum)
You might want to replace all the hoses under the plenum too

The inlet manifold gsskets cost a bloody fortune!

Get your MAF from JDS

If you are doing the water pump, change the timing belt and rebuild the 
tensioner
