Mountain roads take a beating from the winter, they can be a little rough.

BC Forged. They look nicely made but disappointed in the weight since they are forged but they weren’t $7000-$10000 either.(Forgeline, HRE, etc…)They are pretty much the same wait as the factory wheels.

Seems to be fine, it balanced out ok, haven't driven it yet so we'll see.

That's good - the tyre took the brunt of it.

Putting the car on a new diet!

- Ordered a 54 gallon drum of Sunoco GT260 Plus (104 Octane Rating).

Car currently running Sunoco 260 GTX (98 Octane Rating).

It will be interesting if I can tell any difference between the "Pump" tune and "Race" Tune.

Straight 104 with a race gas tune should net a good bit.

Wish I could afford to run my race gas tune all the time. Trips to the mountains would be EXPENSIVE!!

It’s less expensive than the pump 260 GTX at nine bucks a gallon. This will be a short-term deal (I am in the “honeymoon“ stage with this car) and The expensive gas party will and for me sooner than later as I have access to 93.

Swapped the new throttle boot with the correct throttle boot. No more pop and boost loss.

Would've preferred full CF paddles, but this will have to do with the 991.1 wheel.

If you don't go WOT at least once every time you drive it, somethings wrong!
