My compliments to the chef’………kind words any enthusiast enjoys getting from a fellow fanatic.  To the casual eye it’s ‘a Turbo’, still a Turbo…. but the fanatic spends $5,15, 25K tuning and modding that car. The net is a product of their own personality, maybe part of what they thought the car company could-of, should-of, brought to the market.

Some mods are small tweeks & gadgets…..and the other end of the list has cutting-removing body panels, pulling engines & drive lines. It’s often a gamble that tests both will & confidence of the fanatic because the result may (or may not) be as good as imagined…..and any hope of ROI is only wishful.

The chef’s goal is, above all else, personal.  The compliment is nice, but it has to be what turns your crank.  A few years back, a fella at a Porsche Parade put it to me this way…..’I think you can feel good about what you’ve done, if you find yourself walking away from your parked car, and almost always stealing that glance back……taking some pleasure from the view’.
