I have bilstein adjustable shock on the back and stock torsion bar. I have not checked the pressure on the shock, I might need tstiffen it up....

as far as upgrading. If Im going to change anything it will be the Leda setup with polyrethan bushings..

Broadfoot racing...took forever to get it from them, but it was worth the wait. Weighs all of 8 lbs. Great price

Guns, good work with the car! The rear wing made a night and day difference. Now it actually looks like a real race car and not a more or less stock car with added fender flares. Will look even better with a proper race alignment.

I still think it would look better with the end of the front flares cut and the splitter going the full length of the bumper. Also it needs turnsignals, or more ducts or SOMETHING above the brake ducts to fill the void of space there. Looking good so far though! I actually like chatting with you about your project because unlike most of rennlist you can read through the criticism and take something from it.

Big to the project and your attitude.

It look hawt - the only thing i would change is a turbo RS rear wing instead of the racing wing, and I'd add a turbo rear valence.. or in absence of that, I'd chop out the spare tyre well and mold in a proper rear Diffuser - F1 style.

A 944 just does NOT look right without the rear turbo valence!

Thanks man,

I'm looking into cutting bigger ducts the same relative shape as 996 turbo ducts in the front bumper and cutting the fenders like you suggested and using 996 turn signals after I cut the front flares at the outter edge of them. Thanks for the respect...again I have your awesome projects to get inspiration from (thanks about the opinion on the wing).

Oh yeah, definitely put the rear turbo valance back on, looks so much better IMO. Though from what I've heard from a few people you end up with a bit to much downforce in the rear with both the wing and valance.

Looks good. I like custom projects.

I like the car don’t get me wrong, it does look distinctively unique, very aggressive, fast and also robotic if you know what I mean, it is the one and only roboturbo.
