I recently went from a crazy modified 997.1 C4s to 997.2 Turbo (CPO) and I must say, I've been missing out. Looking for some tips on what size spacers will make the stock Turbo II rims flush in the front and rear. List of planned mods in the near future are:

Bilstein PSS10's (luckily I can re-use the set off my 4s)
Tune (Likely evoms)
Europipe Super Sport Exhaust
H&R sways
BMC Filter

I welcome any comments on these mods and/or recommendations for additional mods that would be cost effective to do at the same time as the above.

9LVN_TT is on a distinguished road
Congrats!

As for spacers, 7mm front and 15mm rear is what seems to work for most - this is what I have and it sits perfect for me.

Congrats, awesome car! I kinda wish I had bought a silver one instead.
I'd get an IPD plenum as well and take a peek at the Cobb tune (email mitch.mckee@cobbtuning and he will take good care of you). With the Cobb, not only are there switchable maps based on your mods, but if you ever wanted to sell your car you can recoup some of your money by uninstalling the Cobb and selling it. I am not aware of any other tune that you can do that with. The features and support from Cobb are, in my opinion, second to none

Any pics you can share of your spacers? Do you still have that softronic tune for sale?
