First Year of Ownership (Mods)
Hi everyone,
I want to post my progress since purchasing my stock 2002 Turbo with 42K miles. My main goal the first year was to get it to look the part... I know many people start with performance mods first, but this is the most powerful car I've ever owned. This spring I will be buying a Speedtech 2.5 or 3.0 and a tune. That should wake things up a bit. Here are some pics:

Cognitive dissonance... that's exactly what I was going for. Thanks!

Ha...nice. I like the first year part.
I swore to my wife I wouldn't touch the car when I bought. It was a stage 4 FVD car with pss9 and Brembo BBK all 4 corners.
So far,
replaced the HU, amp, and all speakers
black'd the inside of the headlights
clear side markers
Put 1 bar WGs on and tuned it, then decided I needed more
tune from 911tuning.com
60 lb injectors
meth kit
K24/20 with 1 bar WG
new diverter valves
then built my own catless exhaust
It's got champion rg5s now, but I am in the middle of changing those out.
I promised I wont do anything more...
