My turbo has arrived

After a painful wait, my 2001 Seal gray 911 turbo is here in Flagstaff. It has stage 2 EVOMS upgrades with a fabspeed exhaust, evo intake and evo stage one clutch. It also has a B+M short shifter and ROW suspension. 6 speed with 24k miles. Seeing it sitting outside the truck was heart stopping. The pictures on this forum cannot prepare you for seeing onesitting outside your house. Just perfectly beautiful and aggressive.
I briefly test drove a stock k-16 2002 a few months ago but that did nothing to prepare me for the tunnel vision inducing torque delivery as I first punched it from a roll in first. Holy mother of god! I quickly realized that buying this car just put me in a great risk of death. Oh well, its worth. it So here are some pics and a million questions will follow.

VERY NICE! I should know this, but what is the Stage 2 rated at HP and TQ wise? And how much does the complete kit cost?

Thanks, and once again BEAUTIFUL CAR!!!

It was dynoed at 448 whp and 477 ft/lbs. I think that translates to about 520 bhp and 545 ft/lbs at the crank (someone please correct me if Im wrong). The previous owner claimed that he spent about 15k on all the upgrades installed, but this included the suspension, clutch, exhaust etc. You can get close to that power with just the ecu flash alone for much less.
Here is a link that can give you some more exact info.
