997S Advice

I've had my 06 997s for about 4 months and I think I've modded my car to the point where I am not sure what to do next. Now that car-fanatic inside of me is getting bored and is already visiting other dealerships looking for something fun and exciting.

Alex at Sharkwerks has done an amazing job on my car 997s
http://www.sharkwerks.com/galleries/..._997s_stage_ii

But its either I do something crazy, new and exciting or I am going to pull the trigger and sell her.

I've been speaking with Alex and friends about going with the following mods to keep me interested in her...
20' Cargraphic wheels - black
Aero kit w. wing
EVO SC
New matte black paint job

I am looking for any thoughts, suggestions comments.

Thank you,
Rich

Have you thought about just driving it and enjoying it? Have you tracked it yet?

Aerokit will always give it a more badass appearance. If its more power you want do not pass go, go directly to Supercharger

Richard, as I was saying... the more I see the aerokit the more I dig it. I'm all for "after-market" etc.. but not Tech Art, Gemballa etc... looks as good as the Aerokitted cars we've seen

PS Yes the super charger would make it very quick indeed. However, if you were going to do that, I'd not let you use 20 inch wheels. No way man Too dangerous...

PS thanks for the kind words as well!

Hey Rich - you gotta keep that sweet ride! I agree with Sharky, go with the 19's (within OEM diameter spec) and get the SC. Your car will scream and then it will be primed for track time and fun road trips to LA

Once you have the SC there will be few cars at any dealership that will be able to match the speed and performance of your 997S...
