991.2 C2 with X51 Powerkit getting AMS intercooler upgrade, IPD plenum, Cobb tune, and Akropovic carbon fiber diffuser installed. I already have the Soul Performance sport cats and tips installed. We are having the Soul exhaust tips Cerakoted in a Tungsten grey to match my wheels which are being powder coated in Prismatic Powder Flat Crystal Grey. My installer is a Cobb ProTuner, so we're hoping we can get above Stage 1 performance, but perhaps I'll have to wait on Cobb. Can't wait for the finished car.

Snow tires! This is a first as I plan to drive the car this winter. I just can't stay out of it. Anyway, the summer Michelins are totally worn (18K miles - not too bad I guess) and I am mounting the snows on my 19's. I am going to look for 20's to mount summer tires. Maybe I can find somebody that switched out OEM 20's for aftermarket.
I also got the Skene license plate bracket and will mount it tomorrow. I had PA tags but was paying double taxes, PA and VA, to avoid the front plate. VA requires the front plate. I succumbed.
Since I have had the car, I added clear front marker lamps, a bin for the frunk, a frunk hood liner, replaced the dash bright work with leather, and bought the Roadsterbag luggage and keep the one for the back shelf there all the time.

You're right about the X51 kit with a Base engine, but as soon as Cobb finishes there testing of stage 2 and Pro/Mod tunes for the 991.2 engines then you will be able to install the X51 on a Base or T. I already have the GTS turbos and I'm patiently waiting.

Roadsterbag makes a custom fit set for the 911. I am on my phone, but if you search I did a thread on it. I bought five pieces: with the seats folded down, one bag fits on the seat and one on the top of the folded back seat. The fifth one fits over the rear compartment in its entirety, so wide and flat, maybe a couple of inches tall. That last piece was what started the process for me - finding something fitted to cover the rear deck.

I have the soul Cat-less dp's, BMC Air Filter ,PSE, AMS Intercooler, and a Hydra Tune and I can't begin to tell you how much this has transformed the car. I have done 2 roll-on's with a friend who has a 16 Z06 and starting from 80mph I can just barely pull on him... Next year I will be doing a turbo upgrade and retune from hydra..

No, it's an easy install but I decided to get my front bumper cover painted and plug the license plate holes so I may go over to my friends body shop and do it or they will. Either way I was going to take it over to my mechanic for the coolant refill. He has the vacuum machine to make it simple.
