Let us know if you feel any difference in steering feel due to reduced unsprung mass

When I had a 991.2 with the stock brakes I had my Indy shop install PCCBs and I could feel the difference driving home.

My Kline exhaust is finally arriving next week after a 10 week wait period. With that said, my old Fabspeed exhaust (header and valved exhaust) is available in the marketplace

i haven’t had the car out yet, but I imagine I will be able to feel a difference. Not solely because of the rotors however, as they’ll be combined with 19” wheels that were first mounted at the same time as the rotors.

Spacers arrived yesterday - ordered on the 31st, so I'd day 4wheelspacers.com takes the cake when it comes to price and customer service.
Thank you, to those who gave them a plug!

8MM Fronts

Antigravity 60Ah battery for Boxster 25 Years. Had a tough experience with one meshing well with my 991.2 C4S w/RAS, but here’s to hoping things work better this time around?

I hate that wind deflector: its wide frame obscures the view, and the mesh makes headlights "bloom" at night. UR Windschott makes full safety glass deflectors. https://ur-windschott.de/en/porsche-...g-auch-spyder/

that introduces more glare at night, no?

(to clarify from the PCM not headlights in the rear)

Why don't you do without the wind deflector completely? So far I haven't had the feeling that I need it.

It doesn't bother me any and is about as visible as the reflection from the sport chrono.

MINE WORKS LIKE A CHAMP! You may experience a short adaptation period of a few starts and stops...

Received my Coco Mats today. I like them. The blue is discreet but adds some color. Mainly, i love the way they feel under foot.
