New wing going on tomorrow!
With the new year, it's time to finish off something that didn't get done last year. I'll be installing the Turbo decklid as well as the FVD lip that I acquired a while ago. I'll be posting pics once it is done. Hopefully the weather is going to cooperate here so I can get the installation done.

We had the first snow of the season today and the 4S handled just fine:

Dropped it off this morning, quite a bit of snow / ice on the road.

I LIKE seeing a P-car out in the weather!!! Yeah!!!!
Good for you! |
Kev, take it easy out there. Any snow can be overwhelming for a majority of drivers in the Seattle area. Some of them are oblivious to winter driving conditions. Loved that first hot in the snow.

This is my 3rd winter so I'm painfully aware of how bad the drivers of Seattle are. I'll probably stay in the hospital tomorrow until most of the traffic dissipated before going home. |
My bad, Kev. Don't know why I keep thinking that this is your first winter although I very well know your PGY status. BTW, who is doing your decklid conversion ? Is it motoring unlimited ? They have a great crew there for sure.

Subscribed to see the final product. Any plans to switch to a turbo or GT3 front?

With the 2 inches of snow that we got last week shutting down the entire city, my car will finally be done tomorrow. I'll post pics as soon as I get it back. |
Wow, now that is beautiful.
|
VERY nice!
|
Looks killer! Very well done.
|
Not much for the spoiler, but LOVE the GT3 rear-end!
|
That looks really great, nice and clean! Congrats on getting everything together so well.
|
That looks awesome.
|
Looks great! What exhaust did you add?
|
Looks great. Not stopping now, I presume.:)
|
Looks great!!!! Don't stop
|
Looking great Kev! Always enjoy photos of your car.
|
love that FVD lip
|
Wow...very nice and clean looking.
|
Very nice :)
|
looks great!
Nice to see some serious modding going on here....been a little dull for a bit. Your car looks great, the center exhaust is perfection....thanks for keeping us updated and the pics. The turbo deck lid operational I assume with second wing blade hydraulics? Did you have to swap out the stock airbox for fit? I had to on my 05 with the 997TT rear deck swap...
|
Perfect

Thanks everyone for the compliments!

Very nice wing. How do you feel that the C4S handles in the snow?

It's a Cargraphic 997.2 valvetronic system. I'm thinking of adding a set of 200-cell cat headers down the road.

Awesome. Good work.

Probably will stop once I finish the GT3 RS front end conversion and a set of nose lift coilovers :) You mean the Turbo decklid with the GT2 style blade? I think it was over kill at the beginning, but it's look better day by day to me. I have a 997.2 so I already have the 2 openings on my box, so I just need to modify the intake duct on the lids to match up with the intake box. The decklid is fully operational with stock hydraulics. I also deleted the 3rd brake light on my car and hooked up the Turbo 3rd brake light instead. How did you solve the match up with the intake ducts? I am also installing a Turbo wing on my 997.2! Thanks for an answer //Joacim |
Kev,
How extensive was the turbo wing conversion? The air box modification? Would you mind letting me know how much the total cost was? I have a 997.2 and I've been thinking about a turbo wing for a while! |
