Very nice.

That might be the richest LO that I've seen in pictures. Makes it almost look Guard Red.

Say hi to Alain for me.

Mods are very promising and my 2 cents
bringing GT3 to the next level, bound with semi-slicks will
turn it to a track weapon and street fun,
Air filters are BMC ones?

Weight is less than 991 RS i guess

I'm sure the car will be seeing semi-slicks at some point soon. The car will be running at Circuit of the Americas events. Likely, other track events as well. So it's a natural course of action.

It has an EVOSit tune. (OTS for the 991 GT3 - IIRC).

Just finished a full video time-lapse of the Akrapovic exhaust install. Came out pretty nice

Great video. Love to see the attention to detail your technician put into the install!

Thanks guys. The great thing is that as I'm busy putting together these things (like filming the video) I get to see all the little details these guys put into it. It's pretty awesome.

I was going through the footage and editing when I saw how Alain was taping the exhaust tips with blue masking tape to avoid scratching them when installing the bumper/diffuser. Then how he was wiping them down after putting fingerprints on them when measuring. Pretty cool to watch at high-speed. Haha.

Oh and by the way... I'm busy here making content and watching the techs do their thing, but let's be clear: I work on my own cars too, so I can really appreciate what's going on. Danny.

Off Topic... That Arena Red GT3 in your Avatar looks Bitchin.

And those wheels are stock correct including the center caps(?), it just looks blacked out from the angle of where the photo was taken.

On Topic, the Akrapovic solution is the lightest on the Market, would imagine it would cut a good ten pounds, or more, off what comes with the car? And is the rear Fascia @ extra cost?

The Sports Cup version trims about 45lbs. off the rear. The rear diffuser is available at an extra cost.
