TT Mod Install Planning

OK, with my car finally approaching, I am doing my final prep list to install all my stuff. Please tell me what I am missing or if I have to do things in different order.

Passport SRX installed at the dealer. Should I wait until I get the new TA nose and tail installed first?

Back end
PSS9’s
Remove rear wiper
Rear adjustable sway bar to take out understeer
Who’s adjustable sway bar should I get?
Roll bar – tequipment or perfect power


Front
PSS9’s
Will try stock front sway
Is this a bad idea?
GT3 Cup brake ducts

Interior
Porsche sub bracket
Akkurat extinguisher bracket
Safecraft 2.5# halon extinguisher
GT-3 seats
Schroth Profi II-6 Harness
B&M short shifter
EVO shift link
Ruf pedals
CF shifter
CF e-brake
CF sills

Exterior
TechArt GT-S
Nose
Side splitters
Side skirts
Wing
Clear side markers
Bumper plugs
Rear wiper plug

No one has a data acquisition system (DAS) into the CAN bus yet so DAS will have to wait.

Please let me hear the suggestions. Performance stuff will come later (exhaust, tuning, …)

You forgot one category....

Performance!

You'll need extra power to back up that sinister look from the TA Body Kit!

Yes, I intend to go there, but please let me break the damn thing in, get it set-up right, and learn how to drive it properly first.

Then I will go after exhaust and power.

Just caught that I need to remove the rear wiper before I throw the bar in. Ughh!

You didn't list door plug or center console plug. Consider "sharkworks" garage door opener that goes behind and uses the dummy porsche dash switch (looks like another rear defog switch OEM.) If your guages are black and you have black interior, consider the silver aluminum guage trim rings from bumper plugs. And btw, why am I telling you this when you stiffed me on the first pair of rear air scoops from Sol at Perfect power. I'm such a damned push-over. OK, forget everything I just suggested. It is all bad ideas. In fact, take a can of Krylon and add a little color to the inside of the car. Wait, that was a little too mean. But I meant the other parts. Good Luck?
