Hi Adrian,
Not quite sure what you are looking to do or where you are based but would highly recommend Dove House Motors in Rushden.....
01933 354140
Lovely drive via the B645 through Kimbolton from the A1 in St Neots.
Contact Tony Whitcombe & speak to him with any questions or just turn up!

Hi Adrian,
In addition to Dove House, other Porsche Independents include JZM Porsche (Kings Langley), RPM Technik (Long Marston), Jaz Porsche (St albans), Auto 2000 (Bedford), Barr-Tech (Cambridge) and TWG (Peterborough). Plenty of choice there..!
As with any naturally aspirated engine, other than a capacity increase the only way to get a meaningful power improvement is via more air in and more exhaust out, coupled with an appropriate DME remap. That's going to be very expensive but I'm sure that one of the Indies can give you some pointers for bigger throttle bodies/plenums, freer flowing exhaust manifolds/systems and engine remaps.

As said above, lots of Indis in the area and the local Porsche centre at Cambridge. My suggestion would be attend local club nights and events. Speak to like minded members and hear what they have to share, maybe some good and not so good.
You can then make a better judgement for a way forward.
