That turbo was probably wondering "what the hell?!?" when he couldn't pull on you on the straights. Ancient chinese secret.

I can't wait to check out your car in person. Looking forward to the CMP track day on August 11th!

Dan! Thanks man! We're gonna have a great time in a dozen days or so! Woo hoo! I will be emailing you. Some major cool news...

Martin, They put me in Green because they don't have my history for some reason. I can't figure it out, but I'm going to try to find time to reconstruct it. Otherwise, that's going to be quite the experience!

Ed, Don't know about the rules on the db, but the exhaust is fully adjustable for this kind of thing. It's no worries at all, and Synergy is there at VIR. Every month I run there at least for two days, so I just show up a day early for them to go over it.

SurfingBuddhist, Thanks for the props man. Don't know hp/tq yet as it is. Going to the dyno again on Thursday and will post. Should be fun!

Jared- Your car came out beeeeaaayyuutiful man! I can't even imagine the "Enzyte Bob" plastered smile on your face first day behind the wheel. Truly awesome job! Thanks for the parts hookup, will put them to good use on my humble cab

So... hows that Porsche factory warranty working out for you?

Drive and enjoy - stay safe!

Thanks a ton, Kurt. I'm responding to your emails now. The "Enzyte Bob" thing is actually probably quite accurate! I had a record breaking tent pitched, we'll just say that!

As far as the warranty, I haven't had to use it! That's HUGE props to the VF guys. Car has 24k on the odo. 22k have been with the supercharger. I drive the ***** off of it all the time, and it's never missed a beat. Back in the shop (dealership) tomorrow to have the freon recharged! That's about all I go there for! Let me know when you get the parts. Take care!

Wouldn't be the WORST thing you'll ever do, that's for sure. I'd do it again in a blink. I already sent an email to Kerrigan at Synergy with your question. Rock on, bro.

Good job making it your own man. That truly is a unique 997 and an inspiration for all of us Mod ******.

That Is One Friggin Sweeeeeeeettttt Car

I admire your determination to do the car all in one shot. Mine has been a bit of a long term project, just cant seem to part with my car for such a long period of time. Your commitment has really paid off and you seriously have an awesome ride there. Congrats!!!

Bud, the flat black would really be amazing. Do not think twice about it. Your car will be... in the immortal words of Zoolander.... ridiculously good looking! And the best bit is that you will be protecting the original paint. I recently took all my stickers off myself and it left absolutely no residue. Do it mate, in a worst case its very easily reversed... I am seriously considering the flat black for my car as well now....
