New Shoes

I just got back from PES Tuning and this is my ride with some new shoes on. I had H&R springs put on with these GP7 wheels today. Tony, at PES, also tuned my ECU and I am speechless as far as how different my car feels now. It pulls so hard that it amazes me what tuning can do. I will be doing the fabspeed exhaust over the weekend and can't wait to give that report as well. Notice the personal PES touch on the center caps!!!

Also, I had the pleasure of meeting with Jeremy of Fabspeed when I picked up my car at PES. I will have dyno numbers in about a week after I go visit Jeremy and get the car dynoed.

Once again thanks Tony, and of course, Hugo, for their hook ups. I strongly recommend giving PES Tuning a call! These guys are A1 in customer satisfaction and they KNOW their stuff.

Nice look. How much did a set of those wheels set you back?

How is the ride with the H&R's as compared to stock?

I had the H&R's on my Carrera S and was not impressed with the ride quality.

I would have to say that the ride is a little bit stiffer, but the handling is so much more improved. I wouldn't say it's night and day, but IMO, I like the H&R more than the stock ride.

Thanks guys for the compliments!!

Schnapps-give PES a call and they will give you a great price!!

Nice wheels Congratulations.

Yes, Tony @ PES is a great guy and very easy to work with.

Philly, Question: When you said he "tuned your ECU", what do you mean, a GIAC Flash?

TurboBill-No, this is Tony's own stuff. It's good I tell you. Call him up and ask him about it. I know for sure it's not GIAC.
