Dave: I have been following with interest your posts over the past few months in our Forum and I have seen you 'progress' from a new '09 C4S (Launch Edition with sport bucket seats), the '09 blue Turbo and now the '10 gt3. Can you give us a more detailed review of how you have found the drive characteristics in each of these cars? Is there anything about your new gt3 that you don't like? How do you find the seats on this vehicle since you didn't care for the sport buckets in the c4s? How is the front clearance on the gt3- in retrospect should you have waited for the lift option coming into production shortly? I am in the process of deciding on a gt3 acquisition and would appreciate your frank & honest input. Thanks. z356

 

Nice install, it really sounds tough. Now that is what a cruse/sport button SHOULD do when you push it.

Could you go further and add a set of headers w/ high flow cats to complete the package (no CEL thank you) but still keep the OEM quite/sport exhaust system intact?

Hi Troy glad you like it and on the NA/GT3 the motor is seriously tuned for the backpressure of the header/cat pieces (integrated) and so if you don't mind a) loosing some low-end grunt b) getting CEL's and cats that disintegrate c) gets way loud that way with a lot of resonance

If you look at our car we managed to build the motor to achieve over 500hp and yet still utilizing the factory headers/cats. The factory GT3 headers are the same as the ones on the cup cars and VERY VERY good indeed.

Alex you crack me up with your videos Tarantino may be calling you soon to do a Jaws/Motortrend movie!
BTW test drove a 07 GT3 yesterday and love the engine/handling. Dont get me wrong, I love my modified turbo, but the GT3 is so much more like a race car. I need to come by and ride/see yours, maybe test drive

 

So good to hear from you Scott! Bob told me he had given your car a good once over Tell you what.... it's been so long if you do come by let's upgrade the software on your car to the EVOMSit (for free obviously) and while that's going on we can go for a ride in this little green thing:

As much of a turbo fiend as I am I truly love these GT3s. The feel/suspension etc... it's so "on".

Glad you like the videos. I'm not so sure I mean we're pretty weird

I think you really missed your true calling!! Your vids may be even better than your car mods
Was going to take out the 2010 GT3 but I would have had to baby it and thats no fun
Sounds good on the update, I would love a ride in the green monster and your new 2010 for comparison, Ill be sure to wear my depends

 

hehe sounds like a plan Let me know when and while we're updating the software we'll go for a ride:P No depends needed, she's NA

 

Thanks for the good info on the torque situation. If the stock stuff works good, than so be it.

 

My pleasure and for the GT3... Porsche didn't mess around with the headers:P

 

Really nice car and pipes .

 

Got a few more coming I promise I haven't yet seen the black on these cars but in the pix it _really_ suits it!

 

I love the Black but now I remember why I said never again after the last time

 

Now THAT is a pair... Car ****. Somebody please move this to the NSFW section

 

Pictures and videos do it justice!
