@kj71109 with the race manifolds is there a CEL because of the lack of a cat?
Short answer: Yes. It came on after about 4 engine cycles. I would then delete it, and it would come back on after 2-3 more engine cycles. It is cold here, so not sure if the extended cold starts have anything to do with trigger a CEL or not.
MICHELIN PILOT SPORT ALL SEASON tires installed today. They are quieter than the Pirelli’s and a better ride, but the Pirelli’s are summer tires so I could expect that. The installer thought that I was nuts tossing Pirelli’s with less than 2K miles on them, but I’ll never put them back on. I justified it as just another option.
Hi Dan,
I purchased them for my wife's 2017 VW Golf R and those they did have.
I also as you might have read purchased the Michelin AS/4 tires for my 2021 GT4.
What size tires did you have installed ???
Mine were Not available so that's why I'm asking.
Also where did you purchase your Michelin AS/4 tires from???

Hey Terry, I purchased them through Tire Rack and had them sent to my installer. These sizes are for a Boxster GTS and are the correct size for my car.
235/35ZR-20 MICHELIN PILOT SPORT ALL SEASON 4 XL
265/35ZR-20 MICHELIN PILOT SPORT ALL SEASON 4 XL
I ordered them around Christmas time and Tire Rack put me in the cue. The same tire ordered at the same time for my X3M won’t be delivered until April.
Lucked out and got these from a member who went another way. My Chalk CGTS 4.0 is scheduled to arrive at dealer in late April so lots of time to collect items for it. Debating a DSC shock controller now or after break-in + a couple of autocrosses.

Congrats! I have these installed, too. They should be standard given the placement of the radiators. They are an easy install and fun project. I have the side vents, too, but waiting for warmer weather to install those.
Regarding the DSC controller, you may want to wait on that. I was going to order and install one, too, but SPASM on a GTS is a good ride and found no need for it. I don’t know if it would help for Auto-X, but sure somebody will chime in on that.
In regards to the DSC Module, I agree - drive the car for a while and see how you like it; however, Tom can set one up based on the user's preferences. Personally, I love it on my Spyder albeit it has GT-car suspension and I felt it was needed for the street.
I received some wheel crests from Bob Z in yellow. I wavered back and forth wondering if it would be too yellow. As soon as I snapped them on I was like....hell yeah. I like them!!! Thanks Bob. I sent you the return ones today and will send you a tracking number shortly. The top pic is for comparison. As someone once said, "If you're gonna be a b ear, you may as well be a grizzly bear!"....as it relates to carrying out the entire blue/black/yellow theme. Bob is sending me a yellow hood crest as well....wooohooo!!!
They look better on your car than on my Racing Yellow one! And when the get the wheel centers your hood crest will be in the way. I am changing the ones on my car thus the reason I passed along this set - stay tuned for the results.

This is a great thread with awesome suggestions! I've got a Spyder in production right now and I'm still hoping for an April delivery. Here's what I've got so far, URLs provided for convenience :-)
Well, it's technically going in my 981 till my 718 arrives but I did buy it for my 718. Glass rear defuser from UR-Windschott to replace the mesh. Better protection and visibility. Both cars use the same parn number so that worked out nicely.

Unpacking assistance from my one-year-old.
I want one too! Did it ship from Germany? I’m in Vancouver Canada. I see you are in NC.

Yup. Shipping was about 40 Euros but you don't pay VAT so it is a wash.
Clicked right in, fit perfectly, and looks great. I was holding the baby with one hand so I didn't snap a picture. Too cold to test drive it right now. Probably weighs around the same or less than stock as the stock one is quite heavy due to the frame.
