Poly Engine Mounts
997 SSK
Aftermarket Lumbar Support Retrofit

Out of all my mods, these were the ones that were noticeable 100% of the time in every driving situation, environment, and the most practical and enjoyable in a daily driver setting.

Of course my CO's, Tires, Wheels, and engine mods help the driving "excitement" but not necessarily adds a dramatic impact to the "experience" on a daily basis.

Krazy, no my 40th didnt come with PSE, it was an option. Love the new muffler sound though, great value

Hardback

Uber, no not even close. I have a really good indy in my area who performed the rebuild, TuneRS. The process took 1 month to plan and negotiate then another 3 months till completion. The motor has about 8,000 miles on now and i'd bet it makes more power than the first dyno session showed with only 100 miles. The list of parts replaced was very extensive. I also added components such as 997 water pump, LN deep sump, AOS, triple row XXX, ARP rod bolts, billet tensioner etc. The cost was 13K and that inlcuded replacing one of the heads with a preowned unit. If you or anyone else is interested in the parts list shoot me a PM.

A year after installaion, the single mass flywheel and sport clutch package mod is my favorite. It's not for everybody, but the change really wakes up this motor. A suspension rebuilt using shorter springs is next, and maybe turbo mounts.

I say yes, but i daily drive my current car with sparco evo's

I forgot GT# suspension bits (anti sway bars) is a good mod too

Worst: Installing clear turn signal lenses. Darn things didn't help the driving experience a bit. Car actually felt a little slower. I dumped them to some sucker on E-bay.

Best: LN pistons really changed the way it drives. Amazing how 40 ft/lbs transforms these engines!

best mod:

Invius

Best Mod -- New Motor Mounts, made an unbelievable difference
2nd Best Mod -- PSE/Gundo Hack, finally made the car sound like it had a pair

Worst...The dowel rod I use to prop open the engine because I can NEVER remember to order the rear strut when I'm placing random or various parts orders.

Lol .... 14$ at pelican! Its nice to not have to use the stick anymore.

Me too. I always look at that stupid strut and then forget to order a new one.

Dstutler

Mine have always been inline with what the car needs/wants: tires, clutch, RMS, suspension.

Best mods - 2-Din Pioneer head, sport pedals
Upcoming - FisterD once Darin gets stock

Invius

I know, but I order enough stuff I'm always thinking I'll just add it to the next order...and then NEVER remember until the new box from Pelican or Suncoast arrives, and I kick myself. Looks like she's going in for a new clutch soon anyway, so I may just buy it from the dealer if I can remember to ask (and if they don't want a ridiculous amount for it).

Try raising the spoiler, then opening the hood. So far, that's worked for me.

There's a really nice feature on Pelican site called "Project List", which allows you to save any parts for a future order in case you're browsing the site but don't plan on placing an order righ away. It comes in handy for these situations.

Best bang for the buck is new motor mounts, followed by SSK. Overall best mod is tie between the X73, and the UMW tune.
