This gorgeous Atlas grey 2010 997S came into us for an entire make-over including the SharkWerks & Tubi exhaust, EVOMSit tuning, RSS & TechArt suspension components, 15 inch Brembo front and 15 inch Brembo rear brakes and a set of CEC c882 light-weight wheels. We added the Werks1 Front lip and Werks1 Carbon Fiber rear diffuser. The goal was a daily driver with some regular track duty...

In she comes for surgery...


A few of the goodies waiting to be installed, including the RSS front and rear sway bar kit (50% stiffer), TechArt 20mm lowering springs and Shark Werks exhaust:


Here's the heavier stock side muffler vs the incoming lighter-weight Tubi:


The SharkWerks and Tubi exhaust installed together:


Meanwhile back in the Lab, the brain is given a 91 octane EVOMSit powered tune for more HP and better response:


The mushy rear feel from the stock neoprene bushings is combated with a set of the adjustable RSS dog bones and Toe-steer kit armed with solid monoballs.


The front springs installed (20mm lowering all the way around):


Next we install the GT3-style adjustable RSS lower control arms. The included solid thrust arms bushings and monoballs will give the suspension more precision and less slop:


For more consistent braking at the track we replaced the factory brake system with a Brembo 380mm front 6 piston set up and a rear 380mm 4 piston kit. Off with the factory calipers, pads, rotors and lines:



On go the massive fronts (also lighter than stock) with two piece slotted rotors for improved cooling/longevity at the track:


Installing the CEC 882 light-weight forged 19 inch wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires:


And of course the rears also finished in silver:


They fit too!


The interior got a spruce up via some high-quality MACarbon:


In goes the rear main center console and PDK ****:


And vents:


The wind-tunnel engineered Werks1 carbon fiber diffuser is also fitted to the rear:


Mind those driveways!


The front Werks1 lip also added:


Lowered, lightened, tightened, amplified and ready to go hit Laguna Seca and/or some canyons:

 

Nice Work!

I love the Rear Diffuser, but $3k.....Ouch!

 

The car looks amazing. Does Werks1 make the lip for the 997.1?

 

That car looks wicked nice with the exception of that rear defuser. I can imagine crunching that thing fairly easily and it makes the back looks a bit frumpy or diaper full

Thanks man! Yes it's pricey but amazing quality.

Just the rear diffuser. There's no front lip sorry.

Cheers Matt sorry I probably should have gotten better pix

 

Nice work on that extensive mod job.

Had one of your center muffler bypass pipes installed today. Couldn't be happier. Hey Alex...Karl at RennsportKC says hello.

Cheers.

 

Great work boys!

 

What was the total bill with labor?

 

It was up there
Thanks guys!
Hi Mark, thanks for flying with us and please say hi to Karl too!

 

I wish Mov'it (German) would hurry up and make a ceramic brake kit for the 997S. They do for the GTS I believe and I'm not sure if it will fit?? Definitely a better setup than the Brembos, far less weight, better stopping power, and no dust!! Mov'it is also a brake supplier for F1. Currently in use by Lotus Renault. I'd rather put German parts on a German car!! Mov'it will also custom make the hats so you get the exact offset you desire. Essentially a built in spacer.

 

Mov'it is great stuff and also makes most of Brabus's BBKs

 

hold that thought I couldn't agree more...
Yes they do!

 

Does he want to sell the stock wheels? I want the old ones. PM me.

 

Sorry no he uses them with slicks on the track

He does have a set of slightly used girodisc rotors if anyone is interested?

 

Very nice, beautiful car, how about a rear Diffuser on plastic or pbc for a lower price any one out there knows where to find it!!
