Talking A Pair of 2009 997S DFI Cars Come in for Surgery @ SharkWerks

As much as we dig this new 2009 997S we have to admit they're still pretty much a rare sight as sales on those cars have been slower than Porsche would like... So it was neat to see a pair of 09 DFI's come in today.

First up is a 2009 Macadamia 6speed 997S in for the EVOMSit Software, our SharkWerks Center Exhaust, TechArt 997 springs and the RSS sway bar kit.

Here's the same TechArt Spring and RSS Sway bar kit that we run on our own ZTadpol car:

Rears being installed (drops the car 20mm)

James removing the exhaust

And our exhaust installed

And here's the tools again for the ECU flashing on these Siemens cars:


Second was a really neat basalt black 2009 997S Cab PDK car.

Check out the yellow stitching, gauges and even sport chrono clock (not seen that before).



This one came in for the SharkWerks Center Exhaust and the EVOMSit software. On goes the exhaust...

The TechArt tips are going on later as well... This was first time we'd installed the system on a Cabriolet and I'm happy to report the results are the same aka _zero_ resonance. With it being a Cab and a PDK this particular car served as a "worst case scenario" for the resonance test.

Cheers Alzilla and you're so right that color is truly cool. I wish I'd taken better shots and had better light but it is one of those you just have to see in person
