New Colorado 996T Owner

Just picked up my 02' 996 Arctic Silver from Seattle last Saturday and drove it all the way home via I-90. What a great and scenic drive!

Love the car. The voltage regulator decided to go south in Wyoming and so we had to tow it the rest of the way. I got that all fixed though now with a new one from Pelican Parts and some how-to's on this forum.

My car is modded nicely and I am going to have it Dyno'd just to see where it is at. The previous "one owner" sunk a lot of cash into the car. The stereo system is top notch. Mods in my signature.

If you are a Colorado Porsche owner, drop a reply into my post so I can learn who we all have here.

Pics attached.

Mark

Nice, welcome.

That's not a stock wing either. (Need to fix the mod list in the sig. )

What tune is in it?

Enjoy

That looks like a factory Aerokit to me. I have one like that.. 7800 dollars option.

I wasn't sure if it was a Factory Aero wing or a TechArt one. Also the splitters (997 style) in the IC side ducts and front Radiator ducts are mystery items too. Can anyone ID them?

Yep, that's it. It's probably one of the best track days of the year. Usually under 50 cars or so. See ya there!

X50 style exhaust tips aren't stock on the turbo either. Look great.

That is option code X51, so they are stock. Mine came that way from the factory.
