Interesting observations:
These PCCB squeal a lot more. I don't think my other one squeals at all. Maybe because this is new?
I can hear the flywheel noise when I let off the gas on low speed driving. Never heard it on the other one. Almost makes me think this is a single mass flywheel.
Right now, this car is noticeably slower because it is heavier due to lack of the other mods, and also because it is running 91 octane. Can't wait to finish part of it so I can put in some 101.![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Terrence- regarding PCCB squeak...don't go down the road I've been down before.....dealer visits....replacement of parts some under some out of warranty...multiple lectures regarding beding the brakes...etc. I hope you have better luck than me on getting it resolved but sometimes there isn't a simple solution. My last RS squeaked so much that it was borderline embarrassing to drive on the streets....the last two were as quiet as can be.
BTW...both cars look incredible. Congrats.

Impressed, not one but two .2 GT3s, winged and wing delete! BOSS MOVES! Looking good

Terrence,
Beautiful combo!
Can you compare the driving dynamics between the two? There really should be no difference aside from wing delete, correct? The touring is billed as an appearance package only.
Thanks and congrats!!

Mechanically should be identical. Rides better because I have 18 way on this one.
Just came back from a drive in my winged warrior. It is so much faster, and understandably so. It is probably over 100 pounds lighter right now (seats, battery, muffler-delete) , running around 96 octane, less than 1/2 tank of gas, and fully broken in. It is so much faster! And sounds so much better. Can’t wait to get my new pipe and battery and put in some 101 octane. It is in limp mode right now running 91.

I'm interested to hear your thoughts comparing the handling and sound deadening of your Winged vs Touring
This video seems to indicate the Touring is noticeably different to the Winged in terms of road noise and handling [ignore the 911R stuff, not relevant]
Very curious to hear what you think:
Thanks!

Well, hard to say so early since my white one is modified with all kinds of lightweight stuff, has LWB, broken in, and runs 96 octane. It is very noticeably faster.
Aside from that, the Touring gets so much respect from any car guy surprisingly. More than the winged one, and maybe also because it is so new right now in the US. Full leather inside including steering wheel and cloth makes the car feel retro and luxurious at the same time. 18 way seats so much more comfortable in every way. Can easily be a daily driver. Feels like a softer ride when it isn't. Its quieter inside, which I think is because it doesn't have the LWB and more soft surfaces to absorb sound. As I mentioned earlier, my Touring has the clattering noise of Single Mass Flywheel cars which I do not detect on the non-touring. My PCCB on the Touring squeal a lot, but may have nothing to do with touring vs non-touring. Steering also feels a bit lighter, but maybe the tires are newer and different compound? My Touring has Michelins and the other one has Dunlops.
