S/4S rear wing -> Turbo conversion

anybody explore the idea or know if you can convert a turbo wing to work on a S/4S?

you would think they would be interchangable, but that would make too much sense. Interesting idea, I wonder how much the split spoiler would cost. Maybe anyone who has installed an aftermarket fixed wing would be in a position to sell their's if it isn't needed with the new setup.

The Next One WILL BE a Turbo

It's amazing how that light bulb goes off when you've had a few drinks, but it just occurred to me: If I wanted the Turbo spoiler, I should have bought the freaking Turbo to start with.

Everytime I buy a Porsche, I shy from the $$$ that the Turbo is going to cost, but end up spending 1/2 of my time in my P-Car slightly wishing it was a Turbo. When I bought the Boxster S, I should have bought a used 993 Turbo. When I bought the 997.2 C2S, I should have bought one of the used 996TT or 997.1TT that I had found.

So, I hereby vow that when it's time to say goodbye to my now beloved P2S, the replacement will have a 'Turbo' in the model designation.

I totally agree. Funny thing though. Even when you buy a turbo, you start thinking... I should of bought a GT3RS. I should of bought a GT2... It never ends...
