welcome

Great looking car... and you're not wasting any time with the upgrades.
Not sure where in NY you are but if you're not far from Long Island, Sunday mornings at Captree State park, you'll find a good number of Porsche people.


Love to see your car there

So what kind of exhaust did you end up getting? i did the GT3 rear bumper and bought a center exhaust off someone here that used Magnaflow mufflers, I HATED IT, ended up selling the bumper and exhaust within 2 days and going back to my FISTER D mufflers and ordering a GT3 rear bumper but with the dual exhaust openings from Misha

I got a deal on the trunk lid that i just couldn't refuse. They were practucally giving it away. But, I am open to trading the trunklid and wing for a 997.1 style if anyone happens to have one that they don't want. :cheers:

Thanks for viewing! :corn:
That wing looks awesome......I need to do that for sure. Nice work!

I'm probably doing the gundo hack to the stock mufflers and having the muffler shop route the exit to the center.

i thought about going that route, but after speaking to Darren Fister he told me the sound still wont be the same beacause your adding more piping. thats why i just ended up going to the other GT3 rear with 2 openings and selling mine.

Please keep us updated and when you do it, make a sound clip!!!

PS: you should just order the muffelrs from FISTER direct, its the same as Gundo but done RIGHT
