Default 991.1 Carerra 4 proposed mods?

After quite a while looking and waiting, I finally picked up the car I've been looking for; 2016 MT Carrera 4 with Sport Chrono. I'm excited to make a few changes, and would appreciate some insight (options/suggestions/opinions).

1. I really dislike the oval tips on the nonPSE exhaust and looking to swap out to Fabspeed quad tips (they seem to have good reviews).
2. Not a huge fan of the tone on tone grey Carrera S rims, and thinking of swapping to the Carerra T 5 spokes or HRE's.
3. Would love to lower it slightly in keeping with the 991.2. Thinking about the TechArt, but would appreciate some suggestions based on experience.

Thanks!

Any thoughts of getting a bit more growl and bark with a Soul system? There are vids of 991.1 with Soul upgrades and they sound pretty darn good. Good luck.

Alternatively we have several tip options, ready to ship, and at Rennlist discount!



The Techart springs are nice, as you mentioned a slight drop. We've had good feedback on the H&R springs which offer a 1" drop and a sportier ride. Ground clearance is still very good.

Certainly some vultures in the air today

I would recommend going with our CF tips! (our lettering isn't painted so it wont yellow)

Big congrats to you on your purchase. I think you found a 911 with all the right factory options and now you're on the right path towards upgrading the car and getting it close to perfect.

We carry all the brands that have been mentioned thus far on this thread - HRE, Fabspeed, Soul, and TechArt. I can help you towards packaging together everything to get you max savings on all the parts.

TechArt springs are certainly the ones with the most conservative drop which will maintain the factory ride comfort the most. H&R Springs will give you a lower drop but won't be as soft as the TechArt's. These are the two usual choices for this car (if you don't upgrade further with coilovers of course).

Feel free to PM me here or email me directly. We're HRE's largest dealer in the world so I'll be able to help you pick out the right wheel model, fitment, and color: David@WheelsBoutique.com.
