Help with 993 Turbo Mods

Hi Guys,

Looks like i finally found the right 993 Turbo. White and CB Leather and Carbon.

Need advise on basic mods that you guys have enjoyed without going overboard.

Looking for advise on the following items:

1) Exhaust. Which one is the best but not too loud.
2) Upgrade the steering wheel to 3 spoke.. should i go 996 OEM or Aftermarket?
3) Shocks.. Bilstein?
4) Any other mods that are a must?

thanks!

The best mod you can do without going overboard is to restore it to original and preventative maintenance.

I'm pretty confident in saying that once you see how these cars respond to mods you won't stop. Before long the word overboard becomes relative to personal taste.

Mitch holcombe told me recently "they're fun cars, Porsche did a good job. Plus they aren't making anymore of them. Try not to f it up" wise words.
