very nice congrats

 

Dropped off the p-car at the body shop today for the GT3RS rear bumper conversion. More to come soon including more CF bits, a front lip, and a Turbo wing

 

Patiently waiting for the results.

 

Everything sounds awesome except the turbo wing? Regardless, can't wait to see the mods. Looks amazing so far.

 

Looks stunning Kev!

 

I don't see how that's different from any other wing that people put on their 911. It's just a wing like any other OEM or aftermarket wing. It's not like I'm going to badge it as turbo an then pose it as a turbo. The rear decklid is going to have a custom decal in silver that reads "C4S".

 

I love the Turbo wing, much better than my Aero / GT3 one. Is it going to be functional?

 

It will probably have a different wing blade, like a Mischa GT2M or AP GT2 carbon wing blade. The goal is to make it fully functional and modify the stock intake snorkel to fit the more caudad placement of the 997.2 intake box. This is the reference thread of a functional turbo wing conversion on an NB 997.2:

Today, the GT3RS bumpers were prepped for paint. Since it didn't come with the PDC openings, the shop had to drill them out for me. Other than that, it is also missing a vent, some fasterners, and a tow hook cover, so those have to be ordered. Looks like I'll have it back early next week.

 

The car will be one tomorrow. According to the shop owner, the Cargraphic x-pipe improved the tone of the side mufflers further.

 

Picked up the car from the body shop this morning and here's a sneak peek of the rear:



The quality of the workmanship is GREAT. The fit and finish are very well done. There's no problem with paint matching. The tips were tricky to fit per the body shop owner, but they lined it up REALLY well.

The x-pipe / center muffler delete kit from CG really improved the sound of the exhaust. I already have the valvetronic side cans from CG. Now with the x-pipe, the noise of acceleration from 3k all the way to red line is just intoxicating. Anyone who is contemplating about the center muffler bypass should just do it, even with the valves of the side cans closed, the difference is still noticeable.

This was the initial inspiration of my current build:



Hoping to see the FVD front lip early next week so we'll tackle the wing and the lip simultaneously.
