Dave,

Any chance you could help a fellow ex-pat out? Im looking at basic modifications right now and trying to plan an upgrade route. Could you give me an idea as to what sort of power your car is running and are you happy with the changes you have made? Between the mufflers and the intake, what would you do first? Is the rest of your car standard?

Sorry for so many questions, thanks for your time. Your car looks fantastic.

Very nice! Couldn't help but admire the shine too. Now, you got me thinking about a Aerokit for mine.....

Thanks for the complements on the car.

In answer to your questions, the car actually came with the AWE mufflers when I bought it, I personally love the sound and would definitely go for AWE again. I later added the AWE diamond black tips and then the EVO MS intake. The intake is one I'm a little unsure on, I may replace it with the x51 down the road simply because I'm not 100% in love with the sound at high rpms, however it is a good product and the engine does feel better at high revs.

I have a whole host of other interior mods such as color coded center console, mirror triangles, ignition, dome light cover and a Dension iPod integration kit.

You won't see giant power gains from those mods but you may well see a little, however the sound is why you really do it

I am in the Eustis area as well so count me in for a drive. Also let me know how your clear bra goes. Are they using a pre cut kit or a full wrap?

I appreciate you taking the time to answer Dave.

Last question, do you find the stock power still adequate after ownership for awhile or do you think you will go for more?

Also, any pictures of the interior mods, they sound nice. Thanks alot.

Good looking car.

Is your whole house constructed out of block? Is that a Florida thing for hurricanes?

The power is sufficient. If I want anything more I can just go back to the UK and drive my Dad's Balboni or GT3 RS

I will probably trade up to a GT3 one day but for now, the C2S is more than enough. It's far from the fastest car I've owned but it's definitely no slouch.

Some pics of my interior mods for you

You hit the nail on the head yes. It's rather different for me considering I'm from the UK where houses are almost entirely built from red brick.
