hello all
I have been following this forum for a few weeks now. I was originally a big bmw M car guy having multiple e39s and f13 m6s. But I wanted to get a “real” race car that teally connects me to the road so after doing much research and digging through the internet I was able to buy a 2007 turbo.
I look forward to increasing my knowledge on these wonderful cars and any advice you guys could give me going forward.
On to the pics
Super low miles and silver, congrats! If it is really a "time capsule" sort of car, I would lean towards keeping it stock-ish as well. However there are several very nice mods including exhaust which are easily reversible to 100% stock. Just be sure to get and store all the take-off parts. FWIW I believe the only mod I have done that's not easily reversible would be the .2 intercoolers, but no sane future buyer would want to take those off anyway...everything else is pure "bolt-on".
Thanks for all the compliments. I really see after driving it back home for 5 hours why porsche enthusiasts are talking about. The seats felt great even after long hours and the car just pulls and pulls while the turbo spooling is just intoxicating haha.
As far as mods go, I do want to put an exhaust that
1. Would not make any issues with emissions testing here in Georgia
2. That actually made some noise at start up.
I know to each his own but havin had a m6 competition package prior, the sound is a little subdued compared to others.
I know this issue has been talked to death and I jave looked through this forum as well as youtube channels and it seems like a lot of ppl are recommending either
europipe or fvd (ofcourse tubi and akra were popular as well). Im used to looking at quad tip exhaust so I would want something with that and I want to stay around 3k.
Anybody looking to sell theirs or have any suggestions please let me know thank.
Im also looking at an ecu tune. Something I could revert back to stock. I heard evoms does tcu tunes for tiptronics as well as giacusa. Anybody had any experiences with those?
I think faster shift times would be better in tip

If you are looking for a used exhaust I have a BBI 3" which I just replaced the catalytic converters this past June.
Make sure you check out armytrix exhaust just had one installed on my 09 997.1tt that I picked you with 8,100 miles on it. It did not make it two month before the modding started.its the same color as your except for my red interior. It's currently in the body shop getting my deffuser,gt2 style wing and Gt3 rs fender flares.i also upgraded to the led tail lights and a roof wing. Next up will be my custom one off wheels and suspension. I have no plans for engine mods. Will post pics when I get the car back next week.

Congrats on the new car! We have an awesome sounding exhaust with quad tips right within your price range. You may want to read our testimonials page for numerous comments/reviews. We also have video links on the 997TT web page.
Make sure you check out the armytrix it's a valvetronic exhaust with a remote to open and close the flaps. Therefor giving you the controle of being almost stock or letting all hell break lose.
