Jabrony - where are you in S Fla, I live in Boynton Beach. That blue is one of my favorites. You might have an aftermarket exhaust, it would be worthwhile looking into, the only reason I say that is the exhaust tips, are not the stock version. Looks like the last owner updated the rear bumper with color keyed bumperettes. These cars came with the black rubber ones. I did the same also. very nice

BTW an aftermarket ECU tune without any headers, exhaust etc, will still buy you more output, less turbo lag and more torque. Its the quickest way to start waking up the stock turbo.

Thanks for the post! I'm around west palm. The exhaust was stock, I replaced it with a new unit from fabspeed along with headers. I also had bumper plugs paint those little guys.

Jabony -BTW just as an FYI, the best indy for these Porsche in our area is Orbit Racing up by the veterans hospital. Roger is heavy into Porsche racing, and his shop is beautiful. All they do is Porsche. He is very reasonable from a price perspective. Just stop by and take a tour, you will be impressed. If you are familiar with them then sorry for the being redundant!
You going to Sebring next weekend?
