I think I am done modding, at least for now! The power is huge and looks great, IMO. I have owned the car for almost 3 years and done much more than I ever imagined I would do! This is my first sports car and Porsche. Doubt I will ever sell her (unless a dump truck filled with money backs up!).

Putting down around 600awhp on race gas and approx 520awhp on 93 oct. Not bad for just turbos, exhaust, injectors, Greddy EBC, clutch and a very good tune! Even have my daughter's booster seat in the back!

Now will probably start saving up for an older 911 or something... Then start all over! Have a photographer I work with that is supposed to do a photo shoot soon, but here are some cell phone pics:

If you're addicted to modding cars, there's never an end point. I stopped counting the dollars long ago. My 911 is $15k deep, my two STI's are almost $10k deep, and the biggest money pit of all is my 1977 Ford that's been modded to an extreme most people can't imagine. The truck cost me $1k and the mods are easily $20k if not way more. I just don't count any more because it's not worth it. I just know my truck will go anywhere any vehicle on the planet will go in terms of off road trails, and has the recovery equipment to pull itself and anybody else from anywhere. No sense building a vehicle for off roading if you can't get it out of where you take it.

Looks great Chad!

I see you got some wheels, they look great! Am I also seeing GT3 seats in the cabin? Awesome choices all around imo. Be done, or at least...see how long you can hold out!: )

Oh geez, I don't even want to add up all the mods! Plus my wife would kill me if she knew even a small amount! lol

lol, thanks Aerodude! As long as I stay out of the parts for sale, I should be ok!

Hey Justin! Yep, got some wheels and Rottec GT3 seats. The seats are awesome how they hold you in and you feel the car move and the road! Thanks!

Your car looks great! I really love how unique you have made it, without going overboard.

Not modding your car for a bit is a great feeling. I took this year off of working on mine and just drove it. Even tho I have a shiny box full of parts from marksi and some others, I decided just to enjoy the effort of the last few years.

Have fun!

Tom
