Thank you to everyone that has provided their input pertaining to ambient lighting. I suspected it was not worth the price of admission therefore I will continue to keep it off my build.

I had a loaner 750 a few years ago and it had ambient lighting, I was not impressed.

I might also might swap out the red 3rd brake light to the clear 3rd brake light à la the look on the S/T. https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/sku992tbl.html

Oooo. The clear center light with the standard red rear lights looks really good. Nice idea!

Regarding the puddle projectors, in the description on suncoastparts:

Only for vehicles with factory installed puddle lights at the bottom of the door. If you don't have lights at the bottom of your door panel, it's not possible to add these.
It may be possible with some custom coding, but might also require extra routing of wiring and/or control modules.

Via the following it would appear that some sort of puddle light is already standard on 992s? Truthfully I will not be devastated if I can add them at a later date especially given the likelihood that I will never drive the car at night so the same principle of not needing ambient lighting would also apply.

Notes for specific models:
  • For 2020 or newer 911 Carrera/Turbo/GT3 models, door panels must be removed to fit these lights
  • For Taycan models, only for cars with puddle lights on the bottom of the doors (option QQ1)
  • For Macan models, only for cars with puddle lights on the bottom of the doors (option 9MB)
  • For Cayenne models, only for cars with puddle lights on the bottom of the doors (option QQ1, PP5, or PP6)

My Chalk T in dappled sunlight. Still loving this color....pretty easy to keep clean. We're still getting acquainted with each other, but so far it's been a blast!




Be careful if you clean your wheel barrels by hand. The rear rotor backing plate edges are razor sharp....sliced up one of my hands pretty good. Guess I'll be getting a barrel brush pretty soon.




Real happy with the T spec Lizard Green leather as well. I included the lower door leather and seat back leather in my build spec.

Thanks! @mitchs_996 - I ordered guards red stitching, vented seats, GT silver inlays, rear seats and silver belts. This is really close as an example and looks good.

This may not be the right place to post this. Please guide me if it is not. But i am in a dilemna as to the next mods on my 2023 Carrera T i received in end of june.
I have the following mods on it :
1) Cargraphic valve controller unit
2) Stage 1 M tune
3) Soul PP Sports cats

What I want is to increase the performance in terms of speed close to 3s or low 3s for 0-60, which i am close with the stage 1 tune.
ALso, want to increase the loudness of the sound and debating removing the stock muffler and go with the akrapovich slip on titanium exhaust and stage 2 tune.
Anyone care to share their experiences on akra exhaust sounds and the overall differences between Stage 1 and 2 M engineering tune.

Much appreciated.

You can go to ME Stage 2 with just the sport cats fitted. Should be a slight bump in power.

I have sport cats and a JCR titanium center and the cats made the biggest change to volume, the center made the difference in tone (titanium).

Curious if the sports cats are also JCR? since the exhaust is JCR for you.
I am thinking of akra exhaust, heard good things bout it, but have the soul pp cats.
also, is there a noticable difference between stage 1 and 2? in 0-60/performance/0-100??
