The transaction with Gert of Carnewal.com has been just flawless and he's just a great guy to talk to via email-very responsive and a have so much wealth of information. I'll give my feedback once it's installed and when I do a DE July 27th at Thunderhill : ). I ordered the darn engine protection plate anyway but heard it's not really needed because it traps unneeded heat and leaks would be difficult to detect but I plan to perforate it just enough for venting and leak detection but also prevent possible scrapes since I do have a steep driveway and when I back out too quickly it scrapes. Regards. Mike

Mike,

At it again! Give us the feedback and would like a pic before and after.

Good luck

Loren

Mike,

That's Great!
Who is doing your install? Custom Alignment in Mountain View?

996FLT6

Loren- I heard so much good stuff about Custom Alignment that I mite use them but also was looking at TRG but since are both kinda far- does Custom Alignment offer a loaner car of some sort. I know TRG provides one since I had the Unichip done. It's either two I will go with for the install. Yep Bloke I'm at it again -it's a sickness. I tried posting onetime a pic but darn thing won't display. Regards. Mike

Loren

Mike,

I'm not sure. Talk to Joe Silva (owner) at Custom Alignment about a loaner. I know they like to have a full day to do the install and alignment. He told me 5 hours to install and the alignment can take another 2-3 with road tests. They did a great job on my car. I've never used TRG (too far for me) but I've heard good things about their engine work.

saw your comments. The way I look at the car is as follows. a new car costs $85,000. If you drive it for 85,000 miles the car costs $1.00/mile. But most of the world drives them for 50,000 miles therefore depreciation per mile is $1.7. Therefore the 5,000 miles should cost a difference 0f $8,500 or there abouts. Given the warranty and the options I would go with what appears to be a more expensive car but is really a better deal.

Does anyone know how much Custom Alignment charges for ROW 030 installation + alignment?

Loren

John,

I was quoted $500 (5 hours @ $100/hour) for the install and $170 for a performance alignment. Total $670. Talk to Joe Silva the owner.

I think Loren knows how much it would run since he will be ordering the ROW M030 soon if not already. I remember it would take a full day to get it done(9-6) and heard nothing but rave reviews about them. I need to call them up myself if they offer somekind of loaner car or Enterprise so I can go back to pick up. If so I'll go with them. TRG was another one at Sear's Point. Will see. Regards. Mike

Are you on the wrong thread? On top of that, IMHO your theory sucks. A 996 will not be worth 0$ when it reaches 85k miles....

Does anybody have the ROW MO30 installed along with aerokit? I find that I scrape a lot as is with any little elevation change of the road. I want it so friggin bad but I am afraid. Anybody have any problems with this? Realisticly, how much lower will the front be? Thanks.

Sloth

I ordered the ROW kit for install on my Aero kit coupe. Currently, I do not get any scraping of the front chin spoiler... but we all know how many hills there are in S Florida.

I figure if scraping becomes a problem I could always remove the chin spoiler for a bit more clearance.

From Gert's website(Carnewal.com) it states 20 mm lower on the front, 10mm on the rear. Regards. Mike
