Ok here it goes.

Well i never drove with PSM on in my turbo, and especially not with the RWD conversion, i wanted to be able to control the back end and car, BUT i do have to say it was amazing having GOOD power and flooring it in first and having traction being rwd, it was pretty crazy. I think part because the lack of a diff in the turbo? Who knows (besides for a weight and power difference as well)

The GT2 is awesome, the most thrilling ride ive been in yet, reminds me SO MUCh of my m3 but without a headache and hassle, more comfy and just overall better performance wise in every way. Its in your face and raw, it feels so mechanical from the clutch feel to the gearbox, to the steering which literally feels like a gokart/exige i drove, no body roll its an overall driver's DRIVERS car!

Now, the turbo i feel was overall better performance wise in a sense where you can extract every ounce out of it you want, without getting yourself into major major trouble. I mean it did everything i wanted it too, at unimagineable speeds and so on without any sweat or hassle.

The GT2 makes you WORK for it and makes the DRIVER sweat But that's why i got it, for that overall thrilling experience every second in the car!

The GT3 seats im use to because of my Pole Positions in the M3, a little tighter but so comfy! I feel right at home now again, the car is so me and im glad to have it
