Welcome,
Your car looks great!
I like the Carrera Wing, I have the Areo kit on my 03 C2 Coupe.
Kline makes a really nice product. see Sam @ Bydesign, he will hook you up.
I have the Kline Headers and 200 cell "X" Pipe, but I went with Tubi Style Mufflers.
Here is what it sounds like in the car.
Also has IPD 82mm Comp Plenum, GT3 Throttle Body & Evoms Stage IV tune
While cruising, it is quiet as stock, but @ 3800 RPM, it whines like no other, IMO

Evoms

The folks at evolution motorsports are the best tuners, which is why so many performance suppliers sell their tune.
From what I understand, it is based upon the modifications that have been done.
Also, the option of launch control and hard or soft rev limiters.

Alpine
Sorry about the brief answer, here is the story .......
Being an OLD drag/street racer, who tuned using a Dwell Meter & Timing Light, LOL
Buying a tune for four figures, an intangible product, was uncomfortable.
Evolution MS helped me digest what a tune is.

My contact was:
Sam Stone
Performance Specialist
Evolution MotorSports, Inc.

He was exchanging emails with me for almost two months.

I had specific requests:
1) Not interested in Texas Mile or going 190 mph.
2) Because of back pressure and low end torque being lost with modification to induction and exhaust, I wanted the tune to negate that as much as possible.
3) My spirited driving is usually less than 90 mph.
4) My parallel interest is wanting to compete in autocross.
5) Occasional 1/8 Mile drag strip nearby.
6) These went into bringing in timing and fuel to motor at lower rpm range.
7) Launch control
8) Rev limiter set at 7200 (Not that I might miss a shift or something)
9) And Last !!, I know not a normal Porsche Person desire, This is my exact words in the tune request " I want the car to ignite the tires in 1st or 2nd gear @ 3500 rpm"
