Not too bad. I don't much like body kits normally.

The bumper/air dam is a bit aggressive for my tastes, but overall I like it. Clean and looks like it belongs there.

How much power are you making? Body kit is alright, wheels not so much.

power? it's never been dyno'ed. I run a baseline ignition map (the old "pull X degrees per PSI of boost tuning) and just tune the AFR myself, aiming for 12:1. Otherwise, it's 20psi on a GT3076R which should be around 430whp tuned, considering stock head; I hope it's 400whp the way it sits.

speedo is accurate by GPS with the big 18" wheels. I probably put in the wrong speed sensor at some point. a 997 TT was no problem

Pics are 160k total, so it's probably Photobucket lagging.

400+hp at the wheels is nice in a sub 3k lbs car, however a 997 tt w/PDK disposes of the 0-60 in 2.8 seconds, so yeah I don't think you can beat that "no problem"...

I would like to check it out sometime if possible, sir.

///MEH, too many variables if it was just a "street race". Reminds me of that BMW CCA caricature where the guy in the souped up 325i thinks he's beating the M3 from a roll while the dude in the M3 is trying to decide b/w Beethoven and Mozart.

yeah I know. but with a bodykit, you need baller wheels (18x8.5, 18x9.5). I was looking to buy my friend's 16x8 Kosei K1's at one point, but I always figured on getting kitted one day. Body kit + 16"s =

I still have the factory 15x6.5"s, which should be interesting

Car is still slick and quicker than what I am shooting for with my 240.

What is your complete setup as of now?
