you can see the DA rises accordingly with barometric pressure and temperature increases. when its 13000ft no turbos spool well and power is robbed massively even on forced induction vehicles.

I’ve been lurking around on this forum a while, and finally managed to snag my self a 991.2 last week!

Always been a huge fan of this model and almost pulled the trigger back in 2017/18. But, I stuck with the more traditional European cars (Audi RS7, BMW X5M, MB C63 AMG etc). Spotted this one in Charlotte as a CPO, 1 owner, 10k Miles and the spec was just perfect!

Rode down and drove it back to Richmond - and loved every second!!

I have to say, this particular thread has been amazing. Every night for the last week, I’ve worked my way through the thread from the start. Watching everyone help each other out, finding new mods, and just being so supportive and happy for each other is awesome to see.

Whats planned for me? Not much - but I did the clear LED side markers (before I drove it out the dealership!), and have the GT3 RS side skirts on order. I also picked up a pair of the washers and plan to have those color coded.

Finally, I snagged Tommy’s used alcantara steering wheel and PDK shifter. I’m sure many of you think I’m crazy swapping out the saddle brown wheel and shifter, but I just think it’s a bit too much and would prefer them to match the headliner.

Anyway, Great to be here and thank you all for the wise words and help!!

great car bro

if you haven’t figured this out after one week, compared to all those other cars you owned:

PORSCHE...there is no substitute


I’ve come to think of the 911 like the iPhones when Steve Jobs was still around

Every year the other phones were only notable because they inched a tiny bit closer to being an iPhone....but none actually made it.

Porsche is like that for all other cars...Porsche is the benchmark to which all others fall short.

Hardwired my Valentine One Gen2 via rearview mirror tap. I'm quite pleased with the result.

I see that now - should be a nice contrast against the silver.
