New mods to our beast... (v. Exhaust/Wheels/DoorHandles)

The current exhaust or shall we say straight pipes were making us deaf on our trip to Florida and just daily driving so Eddie made a new 4" exhaust combined with mufflers which makes the car sound much better. We also rerouted it through the euro bumper and tapered in the edges to give it a unique look. Put the '94 3.6 Cup wheels on. And new door handles from the 993.

The rear height (higher CG) can improve 60ft times by maybe 0.2-0.3 seconds due to the much higher weight transfer to the rear and resulting grip when launching. This is a very "smart" car and will look better when lowered for sure!

I have followed your threads. Amazing car!!! With the cup wheels it just makes it perfect. Of course when you get the suspension be sure to take pics of the beast!!

Also the exhaust is crazy...would love to hear it roar!!
