Thanks. Didn't even know there were 991.2 coilovers.

Where did you get them and how much are they? Thanks.

991.2 and 991.1 suspension is the same.

I installed Bilsten B16 Damptronic 49-216042 and price on e-bay was about 3500USD.

Nice work! I like a lot of these mods, perhaps in the future...

Can you say more about the Recaros? Where did you purchase them, who painted the backs, are yours heated? Any fitment issues? Are they comfy on longer rides?

Also who was your source for the seat belts - dealer?

Thank in advance.

How low is your B16 setting? How's the ride? Did you install DSC?

B16 is adjustable coils, so you can make your own setting. I remain stock height.

I drive my car on a race track and it is day and night difference for me. More grip, more confident, more connection with the car. Before I tried to use Elephant Coilover Sleeve Conversions Kits, I can say it is garbage.

I didn't install DSC because B16 damptroinc fits to OEM PASM system without any problem.

Also curious as to the dyne numbers?

Any vids with the Fabspeed bypass pipes and PSE? I just ordered these and am trying to gauge how loud the car will be?

Dyno numbers for the GIAC tune have been posted a few times. Search.

Looks like TAG has it for $2850 although they do not list the 991.2 as an application: https://tagmotorsports.com/bilstein-...-991-49216042/

Ive seen them, vendor claims are always up for debate. I was just curious as to whether you've had your own dyno's done to evaluate awhp.

Always nice to see numbers confirmed, especially considering your running with bypass pipes.

Also interested on your opinion on the cat bypass pipes in terms of sound and performance.

I'm not running bypass pipes but I have personally dyno'd the car.

I do not have a tune just yet. Trying to get that GIAC tune but they seem backed up at the moment...

GT3 mirrors look great but I sort of prefer the current mirrors as they are folding.

Same as 991.1 - Ridecontrol so they plug into the PASM and controlled through the button inside the car.

Have not had the opportunity to have the car on a dyno yet. 991.2 ECUs must be bench flashed so drop the car off at your local GIAC dealer and have them mail the ecu to GIAC for the flash.

Seatbelts are from Porsche.

Recaros are amazing. These are heated, no fitment issues. Extremely comfy, drove the car to Vegas (four hours each way) right after installation. I have actually owned 4 sets so far, for some reason I keep selling them whenever I sell a car but always end up buying another set. PM me if you want to know more. I bought them new and took the seats completely apart to have a local body shop shoot the backs and bases. Lots of labor but they look insane.

Here is a link to a back fire video I made while playing around with the exhaust system, its GoPro sound quality - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyr1...ature=youtu.be

Nice! It's definitely louder than SpeedTech.

Love the sound. Any CEL issues yet?

That is a lot of backfires. Are you sure it isn't dumping some fuel?
