I have Techart stage I and TA race exhaust, larger wheels, Fabspeed tips and little bit other nice to have things. I really like mine. It's dead fast off the line and still everyday ride. Just what I want!

Now that I buried the idea of getting 2010, I think I'll upgrade mine to stage II. That includes new turbos as well as new intercoolers. Still thinking about it...

is yours tip or manual?
Hi there: Beautiful wheels you have!! First HRE P41 that I've seen on a car. Regarding the pictures, I would like to see more but, ahhh... how do I put this... could you please take some more pictures, of a little better quality ? I edited yours and below is the best I could come up with.

You are correct, I drove 997.2 PDK recently and stock 997.1 Turbo has no chance against stock 997.2 PDK. An ECU tune does narrow the difference in speed and subjective sense of power between the 2 cars. So yes, I agree it's very highly recommended for our 997.1 Turbo.

Ok, I decreased the sizes of originals as well

Yes, I agree with you. P41's are extremely nice wheels especially in matte black. They look really nice live on a 997 turbo. Every day you approach the car you'll find yourself just humming with pleasure to your eyes.

Sorry for the picture quality those have been taken with iPhone. Currently my porsche is running winter tires so immediately I can't take hires pics for you unless I can find some in my archives. But in April I will take some and send you or post them in here. I guarantee they look awfully nice live. Great choice!!!

Thanks!

In my car the last light is constantly on while driving, its actually off when you use the blinker f.eg when you lock the car. I think it has something to do with why the last light isnt shining...

Speedarts conversion requires you to send them your old lights so they can modify them.

I cant see it costing no more than a couple of hundred dollars for the parts - after all its only a leds and resistors so they opperate on the same voltage?

Im supprised nobody whos any good with electronics has found a way to do it?

Maybe if someone can advise of some leds that dont run too hot ill have a play around myself.
