  • What are you doing upfront to balance the car?

I'm ByDesign Stage 4. I haven't seen any overheating issues YET and I won't be be able to get back on the track till spring. However, when i ran the same setup but just without the diffuser, I still ran into no heating issues.

Yup, its dry carbon

The front is still up in the air. I've had 3RS fenders for a bit now and really debating on installing them. I kind of want to do slight wide body on them just to match the rear width so my fenders are going to have a few inch gap between the door & fender which IN THEORY add a little mid-range downforce coupled with a proper side skirt. As for the bumper depending on my budget Im looking into having the .2 RSR bumper replicated or just a simple front splitter with my current .1 GT3 bumper

That's good to hear that you haven't had any issues with the diffuser and the headers. Usually this becomes hard to manage as the headers get really hot and they are virtually less than an inch away from the diffuser. Did you use any heat shield on the headers or diffuser? Regarding the front you are probably better off doing a good splitter instead. I'm doing a full R front and it requires ALOT of changes. Not an easy or cheap conversation. On the wide body, you can get the old GTD flares used on on the Gen 1 cars. Its a bolt on and they have front and rear flares as well as a full front splitter. I was originally going to do something similar. I can send you info. I have actually a few spares on this (brand new) that i wont be using.

Had a local shop, Wrap Culture, install these stripes from Dan @ Magnagrafik. Really happy with it.

Chandler Porsche replaced the plastic handle on the driver's seat that broke, and replaced the engine lid shocks. Gotta love CPO...

Finally got a buddy to pull the code and it was a P2272. Cleared and it didn't come back on the drive home. Hope it stays gone.

Seems it has something to do with the O2 sensor. Weird because with the tune, codes for those shouldn't come up.

However Paul mentioned the rears may just have spacers and maybe it was just a weird reading on the "sniff" with the spacers.

Maybe it was a freak thing and hope it doesn't come back. Even if, it should be a simple fix, given the code source.

Few pics... and of the code. Problem is, until I change to a COBB AP, I don't have a hand held to check and clear the code to see if it comes back.
