Pedal recommendation!

Any recommendation for what brand of pedal best use in ¡§Heel & Toe¡¨ application? I need to get a set of those. THX.

I would buy the pedals (see pic) that Gert sells (Carnewal - Board Sponsor). They are the exact same pedals that Ruf sell, but without the "Ruf" logo stamp. In fact, I would highly recommend Carnewal for any products you need.

I just purchased a new set of pedals for my TT Cab as well as X54 tips. I sent Gert an e-mail on Friday and he shipped them Monday and I received them today. His service is top notch, never any stories, and his prices are extremely competitive too!

whats the install procedure on these aftermarket pedals? I'm assuming they drill into or clip over the stock pedals?

I second Eric's recommendation about both the pedals and Gert. He's simply the BEST!

Jack,

Did you order those pedlas from Gert with the GT2 script on them? Does Gert sell a set with the Turbo script? I would be interested in getting a set for my turbo!

Thanks

No, that's my little addition -- I can't even keep the "mods" stock.

No, actually a bit below, which allows for easy "heel and toeing" when depressing the brakes. The alum. gas pedal is slightly wider than the stock pedal in the correct places which also helps.

As for the mats, they are not stock. Contact Matt at Meridian -- 310-475-2788 -- he may be able to hook you up with a set.

Titanium Pedals

BeastPower sells titanium pedals for the M5, and we will have the 996 version in a few weeks. Here are some photos of the M5 pedals as an example.











Cheers.
