Yeah - never met Ray but he's TOP NOTCH from the interactions I've had with him!!! I'm scraping too here and there, so that's my concern as well. I just want a simple TT front lip to paint the body color.

As for the Champions, they're 19 x 8.5/11's set for the standard WB TT/C4S's on the 996 Platform. I'm running 245's on the fronts and 315's on the rears. I don't want TOO much of a bump out but heck, what's another 2MM.

Thats what i was running before a OEM TT Front Spoiler, but i left it black, it does look good Painted aswell... If you go back a few Pages from 08/07 you will see my Posts

mmmm my RG19's are 19 X 8/11.5's WB Offset, and im running 235/35 and 315/25 as per Champion MS... 7mm Should be fine for you

You talking about post #663? If so - Factory aero lip.

Terry / Zookie - Thanks for confirming it's Factory Aero Kit front spoiler. I can't find it online, where did you get it and how much are they? Found this one for like $100.00 on eBay but it's just not doing it for me compared to what the stock C4S lip already is. The Factory Aero Kit one is drastically different.

Thanks guys!!!

Here's your 3rd option: a RUF front lip from the RTurbo I think.

link (this one is just a replica, I don't even want to know how much the genuine costs)

Thanks Altaran - that RUF Replica looks like waaaaayyyyyyyy too much for me, but hell yeah, I can imagine if replica's go for 495, how much are the OEM's.....

Talking It's a bird...it's a plane....NO....it's a Twin Turbo'd 996 C4S

Ok guys. Not sure if many of you know, but I decided to stay within the C4S family (couldn't leave a great crew of guys...), so instead of picking up a 6TT, I decided to be even crazier and Twin Turbo my 996 C4S. Here's some shots of what the kit is, how it's installed and some really ROUGH/QUICK vids some guys got from our last GTG. The weather in the Mid-Atlantic has been nothing less than AWFUL, so I can't even enjoy the car. The preliminary dyno's have the car running just shy of 400HP to the wheels (about 470 @ the flywheel at just 5lbs of boost). Right now I'm running stock cats and headers, but that's next for me to start in Stage 2. I'm having an HKS Boost Controller installed this week/weekend and I'm hoping the weather holds clear, the freaking state figures out how to plow the roads, the HOA takes some of the monthly dues we give them and grab a front loader to clean the development, and I can not only bring Baby Blue home, but also take her out for a spin to stretch her NEW LEGS and get you guys some better vids!!! Please enjoy the look and sounds of the Garrett Turbo's and Tial DV's/Wastegates do what they do best and give that intoxicating WHOOOOSH like ALL turbo's should sound.....Yes, I'm CRAZY and have no idea what I was thinking when I did this....

ENJOY:

AND HERE ARE THE VIDEOS:

Here's a little vid clip as well. I didn't open it up by any means, but I love the whistle/whoosh at the end.

And another vid....don't mind the Lady GAGA playing in the Twin Turbo'd 996 GT3......hahahahaha......
