The modding has begun...

Sort of...

I've installed a new front tow hook license plate kit from a vendor here, installed the Dension Icelink Gateway500, and some new Sumitumo HTRZ3s. I also took off the Fabspeed exhaust, in favor of the factory cans... The car already has a DaSport rollbar, Sharkwerx installed pedals, and the OEM 997 SSK.

Getting closer and closer to "perfect" for me!

Mike

You know this is a similar issue with sound on the Fabspeed 458 cans compared to the OEM cans. Although, larger and heavier, the stock cans sound better. I wonder if Fabspeed is aware of this and approaching new R&D on what is offered. What would suck would be to spend the money and hate the sound and be stuck with paperweights.

Guys, my ears are shot. This has nothing to do with one being better than the other. Don't read my need to quiet the car as something being wrong with the Fabspeeds. They are lighter and probably flow better.

I'm fortunate that I live within a national battlefield park that is low traffic and overlooked... Took some nice pics this afternoon of the 6GT3 in Wilderness National Battlefield Park.






Not to bad for a crappy iphone camera!
