It's been forever since I've been here guys but.....Car is down to 2850 , we have some new amazing things in the works.

Like I mentioned in another thread.... we are fixing and improving some things on the car before the next event. As you can see by this picture we are knee deep in more weight reduction and repairs. Going to lose some serious weight with this next round. Stay tuned it's gets better!

Car looks/sounds amazing- congrats on a sweet build! I'm running a fat unsafe 996tt right now. Would love to out her on a diet and add all the safety gear. I'm also a long way from a Cup so looking at alternatives.

Willows looks like a fun track as well-

Hi there

May I ask what headers, mufflers and cats you are running if any at all? The sound is amazing, WOW!

I would not recommend the rims I have on the car. Buy some nice BBS rims or some nice GMG rims.

How would you rate the xpipe for sound and performance?

I think it sounds great but I'm not sure I get much of a performance gain at all other than I loose that weight of the cats off the car.
