Nice wheels and car! The only thing I'd ad is to dump the amber corners and go with front clear corners - cheap, too! I think mine were around $125 from AJ USA. I would echo the others and get rid of the basket handle rear brake light and upgrade to the 96 style rear integrated light.
Sweet ride.
Here's the clear corners - much cheaper than removing the bumperettes and going to the turbo front lights. I like my cute little bumperettes anyway.

thanks for the advice steve, i think i am going to get rid of the basket handle 3rd brake light but im waiting to deside on which front splitters to install first so i can do the everything at once in the body shop.
And you're right about the bumperettes they are cute and im going to install the clear corner lights as well, thanks again for the link.

Congrats on the car! It looks really sweet!
Please don't take my post in a negative way but don't think too much of your dyno run... I had a dyno run on my 1995 cabrio 2 years ago and I got 263HP at the rear wheels according to the dyno. Did a few runs with the stock airbox and the motorsound and the max HP was achived completely stock. Did not really believe the results but hey that is what the dyno said.
There have been many threads in the past evaluating mods such as yours with also some of the products you have installed and there are not significant gains to be had.
Having said that if you are happy with the mods ,which looks you are, enjoy them, the car and welcome to the board!

im sorry if i was misleading but the horsepower i was posting is to the flywheel 319 HP minus the 17% loss factor is 265 HP to the wheels.
I understand Its hard to belive some numbers sometimes, but when you have one of the best tuners in the north east working on your car and he Knows what hes doing, its hard to question what he does and the proof of a brand new dynapack 5000, with 9 straight runs with the same results give or take 1-2 HP. If any one has heard of Jimmy Kakaletris in CT he had one of the fastest 964's (street legal) in the country, pushing 1100 HP with a 1/4 mile time of 9.5 sec's @ 167.0 MPH

mimmo don't apologize ........... what you're seeing here, with me also, is some skepticism and some jealousy all mixed in. we're all glad you posted that number of 319 and it may very well be accurate and it'll make us think out of the box.

Yes, welcome aboard, and sweet ride!
Now for the jealousy and skepticism part of the post: did they do a "before" run? If so, then according to your calcs, they should have found 226 hp at the wheels (272 less 17%). If not, then it makes the 319 hp number rather more questionable.
