Thanks-I like to push the envelope and do things a bit "different". Next round of mods coming up (headers and Meth injection). I have some slick stuff in mind for the gauge placement on the meth controller...
Follow up post on the AP racing 2 piece discs and Ferrodo DS 2500 pads: I had a great track experience at the NASA Buttonwillow test and tune session on Friday 10/9. Temps were in the low 80's and as such the engine temps were stable around 200 degrees. The car handled very well on track and braking was improved over stock. I could brake later (deeper into corners) to preserve my place on the track and there was no noticeable fade during my sessions on track (range was 15-20 minutes). I have not experienced any brake squeal with the DS 2500 pads. The pedal is much firmer too with new fluid (Endless 650). I generally did an easy out lap followed by a 8/10 lap then hit the next laps hard. I had spec BMW guys come up and say that the 911T looked amazing and very capable on the track. Gave a few ride along laps to other drivers also. The final session was following a friend's Cayman MR race car. He can out brake me everywhere but we battled pretty good on the sweepers (I have Nankang AR1 R-comps, like some of the faster GT3's were running). My tuned T can pull on him in the straights. In all I had a very good experience with the new AP brake set up and this contributed to an awesome (almost GT level performance for the 911T.)

re AP 2 piece discs, do you have the Racing Version or the Street Version? Or are you own stock calipers?
re Nankang, are you running 19" or 20"?
