Very nice job - integrating the photos and the play by play. We're looking forward to the driver report after you get the alignment done.
Do you expect it to feel any different or just hold the alignment - so you don't start getting holiday cards from your suspension shop?

Do you think the Porsche GT3 Cup (996) toe links install basically the same way ? Can a Porsche dealer install them ? I have had mine for two years, uninstalled.

I have not put an eye ball on a Cup car but I am sure the basic geometry is the same this is not a difficult Task even for Homer.

I don't expect the car will drive any differently, except when to compare it to the point when the toe was way out, I do expect to have to align it less, which in the end will pay for the toe links the first year I use them. Of all the potential suspension mods, this is the by far the first, the cheapest, and the most bang for the buck.
