Swapping in a V-8 in a Porsche 911 is a sacrilege, according to purists, but there are some obvious advantages when doing it on a 997 Carrera/ Carrera S

Many Porsche flat-6 engines are experiencing bore scoring and IMS failure - both expensive to fix problems, warranting an engine rebuild at $30,000

An LS3 crate motor from GM solves those issues and adds performance, and CPE has the most comprehensive kit for the purpose

CPE's LS V-8 engine swap for the Porsche 911 is an easy conversion, and costs much less than rebuilding the stock engine at a Porsche dealer

CPE's V-8 conversion includes a proprietary, single-mass flywheel

The stock Porsche 997 Carrera S made 350 hp and 295 lb-ft on the crankshaft

The new V-8 engine packs 495 hp and over 420 lb-ft

Less weight: despite almost twice the displacement, the GM V-8 engine is over 40 lbs lighter than the boxer engine

This particular Porsche, owned by "Street Bandito" also gets carbon fiber bits that would shave even more weight

Porsche entered the SUV market in 2002 with the Cayenne, and it has become one of the German brand's best sellers

The original Cayenne offered multiple powertrains, including a base V6, a naturally aspirated V8, and a twin-turbo V8

So, if you're in the market for a used Cayenne, you need to keep a few things in mind before you make your purchase

The Gen-1 Cayenne is around two decades old, and its design and technology are now ancient

In order to keep things fresh and updated, you can consider some performance, visual, and some inexpensive tech upgrades

Yes, the Cayenne's interior is very early 21st century, but you can swap out the stock head unit for a modern one that supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

If your Cayenne came with H7 Halogen bulbs, you can swap them out for plug-and-play LED bulbs

Mechanically, you need to check on things that are prone to wear and tear

Suspension bushing, control arms, shock absorbers, and brake rotors should be swapped for new units, if you want the optimum performance

You can fit in a cold air intake which will help keep the engine temps optimal. Just make sure you run by a mechanic to check for unusual engine noises

Swipe up to get an estimate of how much these upgrades cost.

The Porsche 911 is probably a driving enthusiast's dream car. While being potent, it can also be a rather practical vehicle considering its class

While the frunk of the 911 is deeper than most rear-engined cars, it is mostly occupied by factory accessories and equipment that come with the car

The best way to manage the frunk is to make a partition, a false floor, and separate the emergency kits, and tools from the rest of the cargo area

YouTube channel Fickst It! has found a solution to this D.I.Y. project

Before watching the video, you need to get some cardboard, a spray adhesive, and a black floor mat

First, you need to fit in cardboard and align it to fit the contour's of the frunk

Next, you have to cut a particle board in the shape of the cardboard and place it in the trunk to check for measurements

Following this, you need to wrap the particle board with the black carpet and stick it with the spray adhesive

Once done, you stash the lower compartment with the essential kits and tools, then insert the board over them

With the false floor in place, you've essentially, increased the usability of the amount of space available to you in the frunk.

The first hybrid 911 isn't the only significant change for 2025

The base 911 Carrera gets a hefty bump in power thanks to a revised, 3.0-liter flat-six

Judging by the 992.1 Carrera, we expect the power of the base 911 to be closer to the outgoing 992.1 GTS

992.1 GTS hardware can be found in the 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera

The 992.2 Carrera features revised cooling and GTS turbochargers

Judging by the 992.1 Carrera dyno pulls, power for the 2025 will be a lot more than advertised

The 992.1 Carrera actually makes around 440 horsepower - WAY more than advertised

Judging by the 2025 improvements, the 992.2 Carrera will make a lot more than the advertised 388 horsepower

Porsche is notorious for downplaying the 911 figures, explaining how its sports car punches above its weight

Youtuber NM2255 | Raw Car Sounds got to compare the two exhaust systems

You might think the Porsche 992 GT3 RS soundtrack can't get any crazier, but you'd be wrong

Two very different "bundles of snakes" from Akrapovic and Dundon Motorsport enhance the 911 GT3 RS performance and engine note

You get equal gains in peak horsepower from both exhaust kits, but different engine characteristics

With nearly 550 horsepower on tap, the 992 GT3 RS can hit 186 mph instead of the official 183

Akrapovic's exhaust results in a deeper growl, similar to classic 911s. You also see bigger gains in torque

Dundon Motorsport's exhaust results in a more racecar-like soundtrack
