You're lucky you don't have a 996 yet. Last time I checked it out I ended up getting an Evo ECU flash, Evo intake, and B&M shoft shift kit. The lady found out so now I need to lay low for a bit.

Actually, I'm pretty impressed my lady felt the difference riding in my car, considering everything looked stock from the outside.

Roger, I think you owe her big-time A nice piece of jewelry... And then maybe by next year she'll be back on your side

Oh hey.. if you want, swing by sometime and grab the wheel caps. I have three for you. I'm not sure where the last one is but 3 is better than none

Nice Jewelry = less money for car

Alright! 3 caps! 1 left to go. I think I'll just wait for the off chance you find all 4. Then I'll drop by and play some more Xbox

Roger,

Is it a painted center cap you need? I've got one for you to complete the set. PM me for pickup.

John

Finally added the EVO stage II clutch with the LWF. Saved about 22 pounds and it's still pretty easy to drive... I'll post pix shortly but I love the way the revs now climb/drop so much faster. In fact the car really does feel peppier as a result.
