Yes, they did give some credit to the LSD, but they were overall very impressed with the sports suspension. It was the 5/2005 issue - had the 997S on the cover.

^^That's a turbo wing on a C2S right? A friend of mine was thinking about this mod...anything special to do this? Great looking car...those are some of my favorite wheels - classic styling.

I recall Micks thread on this and it turned out to be much more involved than initially thought.........and very expensive.

Looks like a Misha GTM wing and bumper. I apologize if it's not.

Used 977TT wing is the key to how much this set up will run....

Used from a sponsor here.... retail at dealer is insane at 13K ish for complete decklid and wing blade and hydraulics etcs as wing blade does rise at XX MPH...

Need to add evo ar box so hydraulics clear that area, wiring issues, etc but in the end IMO no wing looks better then the TT wing on the 997's.

The biggest hurdle is getting a used 997TT wing, search ebay and post on wanted forum here and on the TT forums... I saw a TT modded with new wing and simply PM'd the sponsor and asked if they would sell me the old wing.....

997TT wings can be had at a great deal in the 1500-1800 range, fair price in the 2500-3500 tange and anything north of that I think is way to much, I don't care what the dealer cost is OEM new.

Cost for me - Rear deck lid complete, evo parts costs, prep + paint, and install of everything... in the 3500+ range if I remember right.... it can be a very pricey project, depends on the installer, how much you get the wing for... for me I felt OK with parting with 3500 for this.... I could sell the air box and the wing all ready for an easy swap for that much money I believe.....

mickfluff,

RUF wheels have 997 fitment? did you use spacers?
I love RUF wheels
