Thanks DJ,....I do love my car and it's treated me extremely well. We're approaching our third anniversary and we're still in the honeymoon phase.

Do you have to spend 150K on the turbo? Why don't you trim down the options significantly and take the car home for 125K? Cancel it and re-order a stripped down version if you must. The C4S is no sloutch, but it is NOT a turbo. I would not consider a wet sump as a track car, bound to have some trouble if you push it too hard.

I do worry a bit about a wet sump and I am seeing oil temps around 250 on the track versus 225 on hot 'street' days. I was thinking about adding the "third radiator kit" to my car before next season.

My feeling on the TT is that if I get one, it's going to be a real keeper with all the little options that I think are cool.
