Default New Toy

Hey Guys

This is my first post on this forum plus first time on this forum. I have alot of Audi's, but I just bought my first Porsche about 7 days old, and I have heard this is a really good forum. So I thought I would post some pics of my new toy. Do you have any Mod advice?

Welcome to the forum. I have a 996TT and I must say that it's the most fun I've had on 4 wheels. I'd guess you're having a blast with this car. I'd love to upgrade to the 997 like yours but I have 4 kids to put through college first. Since you're such an Audi fan I'm a bit suprised that you're not all over the R8. Seems like quite a car.

I modify a lot of 997TT's. Our 997TT can be seen in European Car Magazine May of 07 and July of 07. There will be another 8 issues or so on the car as the build continues. Right now, hp levels are at about the 560 to all 4 wheels, or getting near 700 at the crank. Most of that power comes from intake, exhaust, ecu retuning, and intercoolers.

Fabspeed Gen 3 muffler (dual can like the miltek), fabspeed intake, GIAC flash, EVO intercoolers.

I am not a fan of 20" rims on the cars, but there are plenty of options out there. We just put on Dymag 19" carbon fiber rims. About 15lbs each.

Welcome. You have a nice new car. I like Audis, too, but my 2004 S4 was a bit of a disappointment - I got rid of it mainly because it had blind spots (combination of B pillar and headrests) to the left and right rear that worried me -- even had custom headrests (matching the originals but 5 inches shorter) made but it didn't help. Eventually got rid of it at 14,000 miles.
