Took some pics of my car today.

Also made a small video clip. (boost currently around 1,0 bar)

Thanks,
those are 17" RUF. 8" front 9" rear. They're repainted titanium gray.
The BOV isn't any of the big brands so I actually don't know who made it.

I never thought a green 951 would look as good as that does! Very nice... That BOV looks like the turbo xs type H(?) valve...

so you recomend the MAP upgrade instead of the MAF unpgrade? BTW nice car, i just got my first 951 today and cant wipe the smile off my face except for the missing intake snorkal and high idle its so much better than my n/a

I think a MAF-kit is easier to tune and have less "issues" than going with a MAP-piggyback. However, I like the flexibility of the MAP and don't regret going that route.

What MAP kit did you use and what sensor? I'm currently debating what to use. I have a 3" hotwire 5 lead MAF and a bunch of new Hitachi MAP sensors so i just need a computer or coltroler for eather one.
