Easy answer. The latches are hidden behind the vertical carpet pieces. Pull the carpet forward. Latch the seat !

Thanks for your help on this. From the sound of it, i'll just need the lower panel then. That damn part is so freakin expensive! I saw on another thread that quoted $500 from Suncoast but looked up the part number 991-551-055-80-RAO and it was $2k! Yikes! I'm new to the Porsche world and I guess it's true that everything's more expensive on P-Cars.

Keep an eye on these guys for a GT3 take out.

Not the RS as shown since it has the roll bar cut outs. I put a GT3 in mine from them. $875 shipped to me. Had to remove the GT3 stitching. Steamed it and it looks like the pic I posted.

Pulled the turbos off and getting them ready to send out for some work. Can't wait until the larger turbos get put on!

AFAIK they don't touch that side. I'll have to ask Pure turbos and see what they're doing.
The compressor side is going to be like the rest of the VTG68s. They claim it can do 850whp.

My original plan was to make a custom kit with dual G25 660's from Garrett and go above 1kwhp after I build motor and PDK.
I can't take our fabricator off BMS stuff for my own needs. The business comes first, always.

I can still have some fun with another 100-200whp, right? LOL

Yes, beast mode will be engaged soon enough. Maybe the first 180mph standing 1/2 mile no flash 991.1

Now that would be pretty cool to see!

Can you say what you added and to which Escort system? I understand that there is a new expanded shifter set coming to market but haven't seen anything yet. Thanks.

How were you able to keep it at 70mph?

The kit was not a new realease, it is the current laser shifter set, mounted front and rear. A couple of bad pics... Apologies.
