$54 instead of $100+. Seems pretty reasonable.

eBay - there seem to be a ton of these on eBay, so I picked one that was the cheapest I could find. From what I can tell it is well-constructed, and at least visually I can't tell if it's fake or not. It is bigger in outside cap diameter than the cheap plastic cap that I had on the car, but the important bits are exactly the same.

APR Stage 3 GTS Turbo upgrade for my 991.2 Carrera S. Going to get the 93 octane tune along with it, so it will theoretically push me from 420hp/368tq to somewhere around 556hp/552tq.

So you will be aiming for tune GTS territory?

Looking forward to the results!

Yeah - the APR Stage 3 GTS is advertised as 556hp/554tq on 93 octane. We'll start with the standard tune and see how things hold up, esp. the manual transmission clutch.

I was hoping to pull mine out of storage today, but the weather up here in the NY Finger Lakes is 24f and flurries, so that plan got the kaybosh. Instead I spent the morning installing all my Christmas presents. A crest embossed arm rest, a t-design center console module, a function first shift **** and an aluminum gas cap. Lots of wasteful bling, but I like it. Especially the arm rest. It's pretty.

It is just the 8 screw lid version for the .2 cars. Espresso. I got it from Suncoast.
