Be honest with a rear license plate like that how many people challenge you? The wheels are not bad but did you weigh them? I'm guessing 30 lbs a piece not including tire either. Just a suggestion lighter wheels may be a better option if you want it quicker.

Alright sounds like shes coming together well the cams should help a lot and fly wheel can make a big difference. The last thing is dyno her for good torque. Numbers
I bet that muscle car is a beast too!

Love the car but I really don't understand the logic of all those engine performance upgrades and then using the heavy 20" chrome wheels. It would seem like the performance would cancel itself out. 20's is a personal aesthetic choice but maybe see about forged wheel choices that you might also like instead?

there are so many other good looking wheels out there
Guess that's why they are standard on the new 991? 20's are not too big, I don't care much for that style but the size is great. 325s are probably fun to have on the back too.

You can get 19x12 rears for the C4S which would fit 325...
