but that's because porsche designed the aero components so that it is "rock steady"

they didn't say, oh wow the gt3 rs wing is so sexy, lets put it on the turbo.

it doesn't work like that...

Thanks

If I thought Porsche does not design their vehicles well i would not have spent 121K to buy one of their products, at the same time, we replace their suspension design, it is not the best out there, we replace the exhaust,we redo the ECU tuning, wheels... so they are not perfect but good enough to start.

yes but you don't buy replicas and mix and match components!

u buy a suspension that has been race proven. its not the best out there because 90% of porsches are driven like grand mas or angry 16 year old kids. its the small % that are enthusiasts and drive them at the track - which is where the porsche shines.

u buy an exhaust that does not conform towards the emissions standing that Porsche USA has.

the ECU tuning and wheels are personal choices. personally, I would never have HRE's or iForgery wheels on my car. nor would i up the boost.
