Look what BIG yellow truck brought me!

I took delivery of this a week ago. But have been swamped and haven't been able to get pics til this morn. They didn't turn out great. Too early in the morn. I used a free photo editor-Definitely not Photoshop.
Im incredibly excited. More mods have already begun. The minute I met the truck in Moab, UT, I had to get to the hotel I was staying at and rip that rear wiper off! Took all of 10 mins. Now working with Todd @ Proto to get more agressive race fuel tune, etc.

Beautiful! Congratulations. Previous owner has invested a lot. Very complete and very fast car...

However, I would have done a couple of things before some of those mods: I would have installed already a LSD and GT3 seats (and add a 6-point harness for track duty)

Beautiful car!!

Really like the T/A front!

You have a fantastic head start on mods. If you want to do more power, I would consider doing injectors and better ICs first.

Enjoy!!

Congrats! That is a beautiful Turbo. Let me know if you ever figure out how to retrofit red seat belts on '01 Turbos as that is something high on my wish list.

I don't know if you're running the K16s stock or with a flash. Either way, get ready for a lot more power with your Proto 18gs.

Thanks everyone. It really is AWESOME! I had never even sat in a porsche before I drove this one. Obviously, the rest is history. Just got back from going to "granddad's" house to take my father for his first ride. Wow! What a fun car. I've been swamped and only driven about 4 times now. The best way I can describe it-its the closest thing to a shifter kart I've ever been in.
