Not yet. I'm using mine offroad still. It's an AWD remember

 

You could always take out all the interior and replace steel panels for carbon fiber That will make you quicker... Personally I would go with the ECU, exhaust and dont forget diverters. Seriously think about extending your budget as you don't want to get cheap on something and then later decide you really wanted something else and now it is costing almost double when you do it twice. There are hundred of posts with dynos and oipinions on almost every product released for these machines. Best advise is drive a few that have been modded and make up your mind after that.

 

I am definitely not considering doing all the upgrades listed for the 15k. I think I will go with; EP II, PSS9's, DV's, HRE wheels and tires, (not decided on 18 or 19) and GIAC chip. I priced this all out at around 18K.

I don't believe all HRE wheels are bling bling. Done tastefully, HRE's can look mean and aggressive.

BTW, are those stock wheels on your GT2 or M5?

 

I have around 4500. miles on my car. Is this too soon to add a chip or is the car suffiently broken in ?

 

GT2 has stock wheels... I'm waiting for my BBS wheels to come in.

M5 has Work VS-XX wheels.

I'd take stock over HRE any day.

Go ahead, put on your 19" HREs... they may "look" mean and aggressive, but the handling will be sub-par.

 

All my clients seem to have this disease.....

I traffic in this insidious addition..
i KNOW
"WE" offer it up for 6speed consumption...in coupious amounts.havefungetadditcteddriveporsche-Mark

 

I'm not sold on the 19's not because of the handling issue, but because of the possibility of frequent bent rims. I am actually leaning more towards 18's for this very reason which would not compromise the handing.

4500 miles to early to add chip?

 

headdoc ... id love to see how my car turns out



the only difference between our cars is that mine is cobalt while yours is midnight ... i got mine one week after you

ive done short shifter, trim rings, aluminum psm surrounding, kreis-sig exhaust, tint, gt2 wing, techart side skirts, bumperettes, keyhole plugs, and a brand new stereo system

next stop

giac stage 2 chip

pss9

rims

then figuring out which front bumper i want

honestly i think your car is sufficiently broken in by now ... but what do i know ... ive blown up 2 sl55's already

 

Well.... you guys know im going to have to chime in to support Upsolute

..same performance/reliability.


Save yourself the 3K and get GT3 seats, etc.

 

GIAC gets my vote and Cargraphic Loud exhaust is one of the best sounding I have heard. PSS9's are great, Motons are super sweet though.

 

If a mod is done for looks it is, by definition, BLING. If you are buying wheels, for example, with the intentions of increasing performance, it's not.

 

I vote for Motons.

 

Good, you can vote for them by buying me a set

 

I think not. I need a set myself.

 

No you don't... I'm a slower driver than you!
