some new mods...
almost 3 years to the day that I made the drive to Cleveland to pick up this car. 35,000 miles later (not my DD) i'm enjoying it more now than ever.
In the last month i've made some changes to mods I already had as well as added some new things. Started with FVD's exhaust and tune. Exhaust sounds great and prefer it greatly to what I had on the car.
Had done some suspension changes already but went a little further and took it to TPC Racing for their stage 3 suspension package. I like that all the pieces are designed and built as a package - no mixing of parts, no guessing what might be causing what, etc. You also can't argue with a 24hour Daytona winner. Also went with their IC's. Great work by Mike, Tom, and the rest of the TPC team.
Next, was the appearance. I wanted something that looked like it could have come from the factory. I went with Techart's type 1 front spoiler and rear wing. To round it out I went with the GT2 side skirt. I'm thrilled with how it came out. Thanks to Matt and Eddie at Detailing Dynamics for their usual OCD work LOL.
I even ordered a couple of leather interior pieces that I missed on my original spec.

Nice job, Chris! BTW, I finally bought out my partners - hope I'll be back in a great car soon!

Great looking car. I love the front spoiler. And it looks as though you take great care of her. Question, does your exhaust have a swicth to turn it off and on, or is it on all the time? And how loud is it? Can you tolerate it on a long trip? Looking to upgrade my exhaust at some point.

I find it very comfortable on long drives. I'm always out taking drives and head into CT. pretty often. I'd be glad to meet you somewhere so you can hear it.
If you find mine too loud I can suggest some others.
