White hot. Nicely done!

If you don't mind - what didn't you like about your 997?

Great swap! Reflash will only be worth it after full exhaust upgrade (this includes headers). After that, mid is stronger, top only minimal improvement.

I'm guessing that the GT3's hold their value a little better?

Probably not. But if I had to choose which I'd rather have depreciating in my garage, I pick the GT3


Thanks for all the warm comments all; really means alot. I think I'll hold on the flash for awhile. The car has MORE than enough power for me anyway.

I am interested however in addressing the look of my exhaust tips. Should I polish, powdercoat them black, or replace them outright? I haven't seen many replacement tips for the car like I've seen for the 997. Open to suggestions


Did I happen to mention?.... This car ROCKS! My happy factor is off the scale right now! WOOHOOO!!!

Care to mention the final price? You can PM me if you want. I'm also looking to buy a 05 GT3 with 10,000 miles and dealer won't go below $80k.
