New 996 Guy
Hey All,
I bought an egg-eye 99 996 late this summer before I moved from NorCal to Philly. Had a chance to really drive it today down to Cars and Coffee in West Chester, PA.
Have found a TON of very helpful things here and have a big list of parts waiting to go onto the car.
Thanks to everyone on the forum!!
I'll be using this for DE and other fun, fast driving.
Dave

I just installed a full fabspeed exhaust- headers, cat bypass, maxflow mufflers last week. Sounds awesome, not tuned yet.
Car has RSS engine mounts, IMS was done 10k ago. It's a California Car so swapping the exhaust was a piece of cake.
I also have new Recaro Profi SPG XL's in there.
Parts waiting to go on:
-Ohlins R&T
-rss pulley
-b&m short shift kit
-IPD plenum
-Evoms intake (not rec'd yet)
-gt3 spec adjustable front sway
-Fabspeed Dyno and ecu Tune
This winter:
Cantrall Motorsports rear cage
Harnesses
Gt3 control arms
18" wheels for trackdays
Rebuild stock brakes, etc.
My goal is a fun back roads ride and track day car. I'll prob even try Autocross. I have many years of track experience (moto and auto) but this is the first porsche and first rwd car and I've never driven an AutoX course despite attending some events.
