1. 17 inch turbo twist wheels
2. GTS mirrors (improve aerodynamics)
3. Jager engineering tip shifter
4. Soon an RMB (for a nicer "rumble")
5. Mabye some time in the future: secondary kick down switch

Just bolt on items to unleash the power that's already there. It's plenty anyway...

Lets see..... custom offset wheels with 255 ft and 275 rear tires. Bilstien / Eibach springs and shocks with custom alignment. GTS brakes with 33 bar bias valve. GTS oil pan baffle and of course the RMB.

I am currently happy with the level of power. I know from experience with my 944T that bumping the power, while fun, leads to a lot more hidden expenses and compromises than I want to deal with on this car.

Most of my stuff is for personal appearance of the car really. There is a bit of performance stuff i suppose, not really hP related.

18" At Riva Wheels, Bil/Eibachs, front rear droplinks, greaseable front swaybar bushings, GTS big red brakes, drilled rotors, RFPR, RMB, catbypass (not on now), Air/fuel ratio ARM1, Momo wheel, aluminum pedal kit, jager shifter, 5spd boot, new graphite grey carpet, Cerullo Xr seats (saved 60lbs), PKS....Bazooka tube....mmmm...All that should be good for performance eh?

Darn, i need stickers!! theyre good for a few HP as well!
"POWERED BY MY RIGHT FOOT"

If not, the spare motor, stroker crank and 951 pistons and some boost may be...thats an open book yet to be written ....paid for and uh...to be totally accepted by the wife

WAY too many to list and enough to make me question my sanity and financial responsibility.
