That sounds good, though I can’t help but think exhaust mods on this car are more for spectators outside the car (since occupants will hear almost only the loud intake noise). But maybe changing headers will yield some power/torque too…

Public service is also important!!!
On the headers, Probably....the OEM manifolds on the 4RS look a bit more optimized than on the GT4. I wonder what you could gain from a header/OAP swap...like Dundon's system
My guess this car will be like the GT4...you either change headers+OAP or muffler+OAP...but not all three things as it would be too loud.

I think the OPF filters are welded to the headers and are major quieting elements (if similar to 992 GT3 that shares the same engine).

The cats are part of the manifolds but the GPF are on the over axle pipes which are separate from the manifolds and muffler.
They also moved the second O2 to the OAP right in front of the GPF.

OK, that makes removing the OPF's much easier than on the GT3...

Hi all. It seems like racing yellow stitching is not available anymore. Does anyone know how well speedyellow stitching would fit to 12-hour-mark on steering wheel and to door loops?

For those of you specing PTS colors, is everyone just going with the grey interior? It seems like the blue interior is the one it's "supposed to" have, but not sure it works with say, a PTS green. Presumably a CXX interior is even harder to get than PTS and puts the price through the roof?

Yes....my 4RS will be Acid Green and IMO the Arctic Grey interior was the better/safer match. I do plan to get aftermarket seat belts and door pulls in acid green just to add a bit of the exterior color on the inside.
If you pick other mid-level greens like Pure Green, Yellow Green, etc (not the darker ones) the option of deviated is a good choice with Lizard...darker greens could go with Mamba green or even Yellow or the standard grey.
The CXX option will require not just the full seat customization but dash, center console and doors...lots of $$$$$

I went with black deviated stiching on my pastel orange car. I was told going with deviated stiching would make the seat cushions the standard black color even if the configurator shows otherwise. There was a viola metallic gt4rs that had yellow deviateded stiching with black centers so I guess it'll be a suprise which one turns out to be true.

Where can you pick up the Acid Green seat belts etc?

For anyone interested, I was quoted for the CXX option of the hood stripe / wing stripe and changing the notch color on the steering wheel to guards red.

The painted striping was $7,000 and just to change the color of the steering wheel notch is $5,000.

I’m opting out of the notch but deciding on the stripe still.

Does anyone have more information on the “Extended Deviated Stitching” option for the GT4RS?

I noticed it said it only applies to leather, but the GT4RS with WP is mostly Racetex still (unless opting for leather interior). It will still get all of the extra deviated stitching correct?

Also, it states it replaces the seat centers with a black seat center? This will be true on the bucket seats (which would have the grey or blue seats normally) right? I wanted to verify the seats centers will be black with the matching red stitching on headrest and seat before finalizing this option.
