Hey Abe.
Your build looks awesome.. I'm in for the journey.. Looking forward to seeing the color change.. I could have googled the color, but I'm just gonna wait for the final pics (SURPRISE!)..
Those GT2 seats are straight sex.. I've been trying to find a pair (good or damaged) on the cheap for my car.. How much did those bad boys cost you? (i.e did you pay full retail or find a deal?)...
Let me know if you need any cooling mods from CSF.. PM if you are interested.
Good luck with everything..

Thank you so much.
I ended up scoring with these seats. Bought them from a member on Rennlist, they were brand new never used still in the original box .
Paid 6k. The Perlon seats can't be purchased anymore ...Porsche has discontinued them..and only offer the full leather for North America.

Ohh yes I completely agree..
I've already started my weight reduction program lol.
I'm converting the car to RWD, Im installing the BBI exhaust pretty light, BBI headers, gt2 seats they're a big weight reduction comparing the stock seats, spare tire, door speakers, sub, rear seats, I'm running the hre c90 rims pretty light for a 3 pcs..
And still looking to lose some weight on the car .
I am also aiming to hit 3000lbs ..

VERY interested in how you make out with those BOV as I'm having to make some decisions myself! Liking the intercoolers too - love that they have cast end tanks. Smooth and added mass, a good place for it. This is going to be one very nice build, congrats! Oh, and I too lust for those seats :-O
