Default Power mods

Upgraded from GTS turbos to Tial M800’s. Added Tial inlet elbows and swapped out the APR ECU and TCU tunes for EQT Protune. Can’t wait to put some summer tires on and see what she puts down.

Nice!

How did you get the MiMo 3D printed elbows over the plastic ones? I can't find them.

I got them directly from Tial’s website. A friend recently scored a set in metal so I emailed them about it. They are getting rid of the plastic ones and will offer them in metal/aluminum moving forward. Not sure why the website still shows plastic ones.

It's a little thick for my liking but it's not my car....I did something similar as there is an indent in my steering wheel at 12 O'clock which made it super easy to get it straight

Bought OEM exhaust kits (collected parts by parts) about 2 years ago and finally installed.
1st pic: Bottom of the passenger seat. it's a lot more complicated than I ever thought for a seat.
2nd pic: I originally didn't purchase OEM cup and strap and used Gloria's exhaust holder and strap. 2nd picture shows Gloria strap + exhaust holder.
3rd pic: I ended up buying OEM exhaust cup and strap. Looks more complete but strap is much harder to use than Gloria's.
But be very honest with you guys, I bought this just for the look, not planning to use it (I hope not).

It's pretty annoying job but not hard as I thought. Took about 2 hours total.

wheel striping should definitely be an option for non GT cars as well…

Finally finished my DB Carbon Center Console project by installing their center panel trim. I installed the other pieces (ashtray, switch unit and climate control) a couple of years ago..

Purchased the Porsche OEM roof racks and 1up bike carrier from fellow rennlist member @swamp2. I can now carry my MTB and snowboard to the mountains. The car looks hilarious with the bike on it.
