Yes. No. Yes. No. Yes I want to. No I don’t want to part with the car. You know the feeling? I found a guy in S Miami who does ClearGuard Nano SR and seems great. Full custom 1 piece bumper off install. My OCD wants only a job with zero edges. All tucked. Top corner of hood may have a very tiny slit so it doesn’t peel. Found an alternative closer to me in FTL who does premium shield who I believe is also good. I have not been happy with the last couple installs from my usual and very popular place in Boca.

It was built in late June. Probably one of the last 2017 built. Love the espresso leather - great color and slightly better texture than normal leather. I almost got it myself but was afraid it would clash with Miami Blue exterior.

Wassy, how is the car running? Give us some feedback. Hope all is going well. If she is running great, when do you expect to upgrade your exhaust and which make do you have in mind? Kline or Europipe. I had Europipe on my 997.2 Turbo and it was awesome. I'm just a little undecided on the 991.2 Turbo. I've listened to several on videos but just can't get a good feel. Also do you ever anticipate tuning the car. With all of it's performance I'm wondering if it would be worth it. I have to say that I did have my last turbo tuned with Softronic and it was night and day. It would be great to hear your thoughts. Enjoy the day.

I love the car. I don’t see much difference from the .1 except for the pcm, steering wheel and tailights of course. Drives great. Smooth and solid. I won’t be tuning the car. That’s not me. Nor is the exhaust but I figured why not.
I think a lot of the new engineering like keeping the turbo pumped for use I’ll have to experience in due time. Still driving like grandpa.

Hi Jay. I have a Kline in order. Will be here Wednesday thanks to Sam. Install on Thursday. If it’s too loud I will add cats back in. I don’t want too loud or obnoxious. Maybe just a notch or two above oem, which sounds pretty good in the .2 in sport.

After you get it installed take a vid. Would like to hear it. As I've previously said I'm undecided on which to choose.

Next I believe the quality of Kline is as good or better than some others. It’s very hard to buy something based on a video but we are on this board for a reason and I have to put my trust in our friends here. I started out wanting the stainless Kline but ended up with Inconel. Sam asked me to trust him, and I do!

I went with Kline for a couple reasons. One is my trust in Sam@ByDesign based on the many many positive wrote ups on him, my conversations with him as well as reviews of the Kline. I’m looking for a certain tone in the exhaust. Not necessarily louder.

I suppose I will have to talk to Sam. Thanks for the advice.
