Another Bay Area Super Charged 996 C2

Although the 3.4L's don't make "quite" as much power as the 3.6Ls with the super charger, I really do like the non-Egas throttle response on these. I wish all the cars were non-Egas but that's another story. I had a blast testing this one out tonight and with some PSS9s and wider BBS RS-GT wheels it handles pretty darn well too. Has a few other things like the B&M SSK, Fabspeed Exhaust and headers...

I'm liking these so much that I'm considering the shop having one. Would make for an awesome daily d and the price is so darn low these days.

Cool- good to know I'm actually going to convert the "older" gen cars we did back in 04 and early 05 over to the newer injectors and "flash" which seems to fix things nicely...

This one is a sleeper.. Looks pretty stock on the outside (other than the lowering and wheels) but it's got what you have... minus the "smaller" pulley, brakes and Motons so I'd not be as comfy tossing it about.

What about when you have to smog the car? What's up with the CARB cert?

Those BBS wheels are the ****. I love those wheels.

Can you let me know an approximate price for the BBS RS-GT's?

Congrats to the new Supercharger owner. You will love it!

A question that I don't have the answer to Todd can chime in on the status of that.

I was reminded yesterday again why I Supercharged my C4S when I took the wife's M5 on the interstate. The Bemmer is an incredible car and used to be a tad faster than the Porsche, but no more. I still am plagued with a CEL and just don't bother to reset it with my OBDII program because it just recurrs in a few hundred miles. What to do? Any new updates on software that will fix the problem? Will

We're doing Robert's injectors next week and converting him to flash...

PS We're also going to be doing another 3.4L SC kit the following week. Watch out the owner is a wacky Brit (not me either).
