What did you buy your 991 today thread
#8161
Joey set me up with the GT3 front bar and Tarret rear bar. Both with Tarret endlinks.
The feedback from all of you running E-Motion setups really helped. I choked when I first got the quote but after some research it was the right way go. The quality of the sphericals which are made by Aura used is unmatched in anything I have ever used. The tie rod end bearings retail for 450 each.

Love the look with your springs. How's the camber in the rear? Do you believe you'll need dog bones?

@The Ox Sure here are the details of what I went with:
Tractive Coilovers from TPC, these also use their DSC Controller https://www.dscsport.com/product/tra...91-rt-package/ The spring rates are from Joey at E-Motion which differs from the rates TPC recommended but I really trust Joey when it comes to setups. Anyone I have spoken to that has driven a car setup at his shop can’t say enough good things about the suspension. The rate changes may take a bit of tweaking in DSC, but that software is really easy to use and very powerful once you understand the concept. TPC does allow you to specify your own rates and will supply a base map for those rates.
The front lower arms, caster rod, rear lower and upper arms, outer lower control arm/lower damper mount are all E-Motion Engineering. Their stuff is not cheap, but it shows, its very very high quality. You will want to mount them on your office wall they look so damn good. They also use Aurora bearings, just look up their raw bearing prices and you can see what you are dealing with here.
Front Sway bar is GT3, and rear is Tarett adjustable with Tarett end links front and rear.
New plugs, APR coil packs and BMC filter since we are already there why not. Also all the lubricant is being replaced with the "Driven" brand of products.
Wheels I went with Forgeline GW3Rs in 20inch
Numeric Shifter, and I will add the cables next when we do the engine work
I’m going by the shop tomorrow afternoon and will take a few pictures of the install.
Once the suspension is dialed in, I will be adding power, Tial M800s, Tial Intercoolers, Vektor headers, Vektor high-flow cats, and custom tune.
I'm currently working in the brake package but will probably go with the soon to be released Hinz Motorsport custom setup with PFC calipers and Surface Transform rotors.
My goal is to have what I always wanted a 600HP REAR drive Manual turbo with GT3+ level of handling. Not something that Porsche offers, unless you want a 992 Sport Classic and I’m not paying the ADM for that car, nor am I playing the GT3 ADM game either. I tried and I'm done with it. I'm building MY 911.
A GTS wide body would have been nice but I couldn't find one without a sunroof, so I went with a high option C2S. It does not have the sport package but has every individual option of the Sport Package other than PSE which is not a deal breaker for me, which a sunroof is.

Thanks. I have '17 Base C2, manual. Softronic Tune, SOUL headers , sport cats, Numeric shifter & cables, GiroDisc Rotors, Pagid Yellow pads, and DCS V3. I've been running on PCA DE , currently in Blue group where things are much faster. I've been exploring these changes, so this really help, I appreciate and look forward to the review.

Thanks, it definitely needs some mods to keep up the solo groups. I like the idea of integrating the suspension with DSC. Your suspension mods look perfect. I highly recommend HPDE, really a blast, great people, and you get to open up your hot rod in a controlled environment.

I could not agree more on HPDE, I tracked heavily from 2012-2017 and had to take a break to take care of my mom. Now that she’s back in South Florida with me its' time to get back on the track and shake off the rust.

How difficult was the install? I've contemplated this upgrade but haven't found info regarding installation.
