I also think the formula wheels gotta go soon. They need something a little newer and fresher.

I don't think they have done a good at all in any late model, the side skirts don't flow with the rear and look badly installed, specially in the Cayman and Wide Body 911's.

I like the rear apron on the Turbo though.

They have been on the market for a while but they still work IMO because they kinda' give the Fuchs idea to newer Porsches.

Then again, something new wouldn't be bad either.

Is funny 997TT's rear spoiler very similar to 996TT TA type I spoiler. Now TA have 996TT factory aero rear spoiler look on their 997TT ... They both look good but are they have any new design? We need new design for new car!!

Chasen I'm really going to try to stay patient with this TT. I don't want to get one kit, then another comes out and I have to upgrade again.

Can you believe that I havn't even done an exhaust yet. That's a first for me!! I know Fabspeed has theirs but I am going to wait till I see some dyno #'s. I am also waiting to see what Miltek, Europipe come out with.


In regards to the TechArt Formula's yeah they are getting outdated but I still love them over any wheel out there today. I've done the whole 5" lips, racing wheels, etc.. and I for one love these wheels cuz they address everything I like in a wheel (simple, elegant, sporty, easy to maintain, and solid). I think they're like the BBS LM's that have become very classic (a wheel you can't go wrong with) just my $.02
