I like her MODS but since they are all cosmetic, do they add much additional weight, thus decrease overall performance?

Porsche Sport Exhaust. It doesn't add HP, but the sound is oh so delicious . . .

Evo V-flow intakes coupled with B&B exhausts... a beautiful noise.

A carbon fiber gas cap. It's the latest rage and reduces weight by 2 grams or so.

Seriously, you didn't say whether or not you plan to track your car.

Just did the ROW 030 suspension this weekend. I really am sure this is what Porsche had in mind for this car. The brake dive and acceleration lift is completely gone and damn does it look good.

PSE and Porsche sports suspension. Anything else is a waste on money!

Oshin..i'll trade you my p-car for the girl in your avatar....seriously...wow.

having said that, as other members have probably said, there isn't much you can do to get more power out of the N/A block, short of supercharging so you would probably better to spend money on mods that make the car more enjoyable on the whole. B&M SSK's are great, an exhaust to make the car sound like a real sports car, LWF will make rev matching great and tracking all the more better.

Lmk if you need anything, i'll be in baltimore MD this december.....bring the girl in your avatar
