My 2008 997 TT

Hey guys, so finally got around to taking a pic of my "new" Turbo.

Bought it about 6 months ago for original owner(drove to LA from San Francisco). 08 Blk/Blk, 6 speed with 8.5K miles when I bought it. Car was completely stock except a full clear bra and the OEM rims were powder coated by the dealer.

Since then, I have installed a Tubi gen 2 exhaust, ECU flash by sharkwerks, and just installed a set of BBS CH-R with Michelin Super Sport (245X35X19, 325X30X19). May take back to Sharkwerks for a suspension upgrade but debating that given that I drive the car in SF quite a bit...

congrats, ive done pretty much same upgrades on my tt, also resisting a drop as the black wheels kind of help in making the car not look like a 4x4

Congrats car looks great. God bless you for driving it in the city. Lowering it will definitely present you with some challenges. I took my car for a ride through the city once, no damage done but I will not go back with it unless i'm driving around the piers.

LOL I searched for weeks...
That pic was the car rolling out of the tire shop in San Rafael with new rims/tires.

Thanks for all the compliments guys...
