    Episode #60 Waffle | Fitting a GT4 RS intake to a 981, going viral(ish) and collars galore!

    What was it like to install the Gold Leaf Performance 4RS intake on a 981? I didn't have a great deal of choice last week. I wore the same scruffy garage clothes for days on end, bounced from day job to the Renngineering Cayman build, and back again. I set myself the target of collecting and fitting the beautifully designed and made GT4 RS style intake system on my car within a week. A lofty goal, particularly because I'm absolutely anal about getting things right. Close just ain't good enough. I didn't quite hit my one week goal but only by a day. Putting it simply - I couldn't be happier. I learned something in the process. All you need to do to have a successful reel is post up a short clip of a car revving to the redline. OK, I'm reasonably sure a Mitsubishi Galant 2.0 from 1994 wouldn't quite have got people excited but this certainly did. I've since put 250 miles on the car and it's perfect. Everything works just as it should. Sounds immense. Looks even better. I'm a particular fan of the spec I chose as well, Agate grey side window podsMatte carbon throughoutGold pinstripe on the engine coverIn this episode I also pick up on the next few episodes being shot and some potentially gamechanging news for Renngineering, that could... could,, be the start of the shift towards it being a full time job.

    Episode #59 Your Porsche Stories | Bruce Floyd, Brumos and the 250'000 mile 911

    Your Porsche Stories is BACK! I love these episodes. They don't happen as frequently as I would like (massive hint there) so if you have a really cool Porsche or there's a great family story behind it, or perhaps the car itself has a really great backstory - I want to hear from you. Drop me a DM or email and we'll find some time. Every now and again, I'll take the lead and when I see something cool, will reach out to the owner and invite them on. That's what happened with Bruce. I genuinely didn't know about his Brumos and Hurley Haywood connections when I messaged him, nor did I realise how nice a guy he was. All just lucky surprises. So, if you want to hear about a 250'000 mile '87 911 then grab that coffee and have a listen on any podcast streaming service. I'll take a moment to thank you all for listening so far. I appreciate all of you and always welcome your comments, questions and thoughts. Just drop me a DM or email.

    Episode #58 Heritage | Richard Tuthill - HIS Porsche Origins Story

    Finally... FINALLY... The Tuthill Episode! We're back with a new season, and I wanted to kick this one off with a big bang. What's a bigger bang than a rally driving legend that is just crazy enough to build an 11000rpm aircooled 911, run an ice driving event and has time left over to build a modern take on the Porsche GT1, the Tuthill GT ONE. More than that though, the company itself carry out restoration builds, the SC RS, the 2.0 cup, and are again, just about mad enough to say yes to (almost) anything! We get in to Richard's early memories of rolling a VW Beetle in the fields behind where we were sat as we recorded the episode. We talked about him getting politely kicked out of school, all the way through to scaling up from a well respected brand within a small community to a globally renowned business with clients all around the world. It also, at times, felt and seemed like a job interview. I genuinely feel like it's one of the best podcast episodes that I've recorded to date. I hugely proud of the progress I've made as a podcaster over the past few years and I truly hope you enjoy listening as much as I have making it. I'll take a moment to thank you all for listening so far. I appreciate all of you and always welcome your comments, questions and thoughts. Just drop me a DM or email.

    Episode #57 Waffle | What on earth is going on at Porsche?! Mick joins for a classic, certified, waffle

    Mick jumps back on the good ship Renngineering. It's always fun us two getting together to rattle through what's going on in our lives but when Porsche release a do not drive statement just in time for a Waffle, it was always going to be good. We also gave our thoughts on the GT3 992.2 and the 911 Carrera T. A cabrio... really?! I hope you're all doing well. If you are get out and drive and if you can't do that, get planning a trip for when you can. Thanks for listening. I'll take a moment to thank you all for listening so far.

    Episode #56 Heritage | What to do when you don't want to build a Singer 911 but that's kind of what you're starting with!??

    Picture this... you've found a car that sounds like a scam, but it's a Singer style shell, sat at Tuthill Porsche. It's reasonable money but you're taking it on, basically on trust. You then don't want to build a Singer tribute and go about building something yourself. That's what Paul Leyton did with this 911! Some people have a natural way about them, that makes you feel that nothing is worth getting too upset about, and that it'll all work out. Well this episode gives you about ten of those examples. The output from all of that work is an absolutely stunning car. Genuinely one of the nicest "home builds" and I'm reluctant to use that term, that I've ever seen. It's also now for sale. As is one of my kidneys. We follow Paul from the early days of building VW Beetles, through a load of flips, to his one of ten 964 cab, his 993 build and this, his complete one off. You'd be forgiven for thinking that little trip is cool as it is, but you really do need to shoot over to YouTube to check the interior out. It's amazing. A big thanks to Paul for being a good friend and for spending time with me. An even bigger thanks for when we caught up once the new engine was in and being dialled in and chucking me the keys. Yes, you guessed it, that's on YouTube as well. You can find Paul at @dooley.vw on instagram. So if you listen, and then check out the pics on the Renngineering insta, or watch on YouTube and want to buy the car, shoot him a DM. Thanks for listening.

    Episode #55 Tech Talk | Wrightune! Aircooled engines and choosing an engine for the RENN550

    A big personality from a big man! Some episodes you listen back to and find yourself smiling a big dumb smile. That's what this episode did. Partly because it was so useful for me to learn about air-cooled Porsche engines, or at least start that journey but also because he's such a good laugh to be around. You'll hear us talk about Chris and his dad's background in racing, including a Jacky Ickx Le Mans winning engine build, Chris's own motorsport career but also how he's part mechanically minded and part artisan. Like a BFG sized Roald Dahl. Chris takes me through the pro's and con's of all the different eras of six cylinder P-car engine and what to consider before almost coming to a conclusion. Almost. No doubt we'll debate it further as things develop, but for now at least it's food for thought. Bonus easter egg for the OG's that wait for the post credits.

  7. Episode #54 Waffle | The Comeback Kid!

    Episode #54 Waffle | The Comeback Kid!

    The comeback kid What a strange couple of weeks! With an episode that was difficult to record, difficult to edit, and difficult to put out, you couldn't make up the u-turn that came after. With that pause and reflection in the bank, and the need to buy a new daily runabout, particularly for the winter, it was looking more and more like buying a VX220 or Elise donor car for the RENN550 was going to be a 2025 thing. The budget for a donor isn't huge, with the early phase of the build but self funded. That's why monetising both the pod and YouTube channel are so important. Cars have come and gone, but mostly written off/totalled cars. For most cars that's a problem. Lotus cars tend to be written off for silly things like lights, small cracks in the fibreglass clam shells etc. So whilst not attractive to a potential future owner, as a development car not a disaster. Still, I did want a straight car with a clean title/V5. I missed a few cars by minutes, until one popped up online at the exact moment I was scrolling away. Within seconds I'd messaged "I'll have it!". Roadworthy, serviced and MOT'd and with 74000 miles and with a clean title - it's perfect. So there we have it. I'll be dallying a scruffy old VX220 whilst at the same time 3D scanning it so I have data to play with. Als0, in between the last episode and this, I had two episodes shot with both Tuthill Porsche's Richard Tuthill and a second episode with Frank Cassidy. Both who told stories of being focused on the goal and being willing to take some knocks along the way. Time for me to take a few days off and relax in Greece, but I'll be back next week with more of season 3 after this brief interlude. Thanks for listening. I'll take a moment to thank you all for listening so far. I appreciate all of you and always welcome your comments, questions and thoughts. Just drop me a DM or email.

  8. Episode #53 Waffle | The honest episode.

    Episode #53 Waffle | The honest episode.

    The honest episode. I remember listening to Porsche Cooled with Michael Bath just before Renngineering started and hearing him talk about being tired and it being a pretty labour intensive thing to do, putting out a podcast weekly. Blindly positive, I thought how hard can it be!? Turns out there are two answers to that. If you have a team around you making it all happen and you can be the host, pretty sensible. However, if you're a pretty normal working guy or gal, and having to do it all, well that's intense. Not to do things be halves, I chose to start a channel where I go and see and chat to these big companies, fantastic independents, or cool collectors. I absolutely love doing it and I'd play to mosquitos as Sheryl Crow says. I just wouldn't put pressure on myself to put an episode out a week! The problem is... if you don't, you won't grow. If you don't hammer social media, you won't grow. If you aren't shamefully self promoting, you won't grow. So this episode is a bit of a reflection of all of that. I don't like leaving things with a negative tone, so I thought I'd share a chat that I recorded when I went to visit Simon, who owns Built By Basil. Another normal, down to earth guy doing what he loves and trying to make it a success. I'll take a moment to thank you all for listening so far.
