One question.. whats up with the exhaust tips? They arent stock on the 997 turbo, are they taken from a 996 turbo?

TechArt sells those exhaust tips. I like the way it looks so I bought a set.

What about the costs? How much you paid for all these mods about suspensions?
Thanks for sharing. I won't do the mods on my TT convertible, it doesn't match with cruising top-down
I couldn't begin to tell you what the total cost was because I did it over a period of three years. I would guess maybe $10-15k total but that's only a guess. It could be more or it could've been less.

Really awesome thread and a very nice combo of hardware to get these Turbos to handle as they should

PS Are those the mode camber plates?

Thanks Alex! I worked hard to get her the way I want her and I have a feeling there's still more to do. And yes, those are mode camber plates.
