Hold your horses there Skippy. There is nothing that says you have to be reasonable when your kids go to college. I am sure there are many successful people out there that went to a community college.

Or you can just go with this guy’s mentality. My nanny sent it to me. She was in line to pick the kids up from school. Both her and my wife make fun of the fact that I drop the kids off to school in the 991.

My 11 year old daughter asks me to drop her off at the corner of the street. She's tired of hearing the boys saying 'wow, what a cool ride'

Glad to hear I'm not he only one who uses the 991 as a soccer mom car

Had the Fabspeed headers installed for 2 weeks ... unfortunately, they are a bit louder than I had hoped for, plus they are not fully compatible with the GIAC ECU ... GIAC says that the O2 sensor placement on the headers is slightly different from the OEM headers, and that unfortunately doesn't allow the ECU to maximize power. So I had them taken off ... they are for sale ...

https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...d-headers.html

BTW - I'm also selling a set of 991s OEM cylinder heads and intake camshafts ... these were taken off by Suncoast Porsche when I had the X51 power kit installed with 2000 miles on the car ....

Thanks! Just learned from another 6speeder that two of our track friends crashed their 911's today (one rear ending the other in fact)

I will not be back at the track with the 991 for another 3 or 4 months, so it will give me the time to decide if I want to continue taking her there and go full out or use a more 'disposable' ride.

Thanks. Very happy with the repairs and the car really looks (paint, wheels, calipers, headlights), feels (new steering wheel!) and smells like a new car.
