Do You Mod in Stages, or Buy the Full Stage?
I'm looking for some help from my fellow RL 991.2 enthusiasts... How do you prefer your Mod Paths? A-La-Carte or Combo Meal?
I'll start! I like to have an understanding of how the integration of each mod plays out in the performance, feedback, and driving experience. So I tend to gravitate towards buying in a slow methodical (often over-researched) manner to get an understanding of cause and effect while going down this path.
We've had request for a 'stage', which I can completely understand as there is a financial disadvantage to buying parts singularly vs a 'package' price. The most common 'Stage' request is for the Vektor Performance Headers & High Flow Cats (pic attached). Would there be even further interest in if a tuning platform was added to the mix?
Thanks everyone!

Because parts for these cars aren't in stock I just ordered all I needed within a few days, waiting time for almost everything is 3 to 5 weeks.
I've been lucky that most of my orders have been pushed and it looks like most are taking 3 weeks and not 5 weeks

It also depends on the car. Most of my previous cars (BMW's and 1 Audi) I had been hunting for them for some time, so while I found the 'one' I was looking for I would also be getting and stashing the mods I knew I was going to be doing so when the car came in I had it all installed over a week or two (myself). But these were cars that I've had prior experience with. The .2 911 is different, I think the car is so well out of the box, and I had not owned one but have plenty of seat time on and off the track in base-GT3 variants that I had an 'idea' of what I was looking for in terms of mods. For example, exhaust for me isnt getting any power out of it, but purely sound. I am temped to do headers but I am on the fence because I am not sure I like the sound of headers with a catless setup. But enjoy the PSE with catless pipes. So for me, its as the wifes mood is in before I pull the trigger on a mod or two slowly over time for the 911. :P

cosmetic all at once but performance a la carte so i can recognize each change.. e.g. how it sounds w/ just sport cats, vs then adding headers... or with my tune i drove stg1 for a while before loading stg 2
