Default My first mod

I've only had my C4S for about a month now but decided to do the pedals. These were the cheapy ones from fleabay but I am happy with them. The install went fairly smoothly. Searched another thread of how someone installed them and the suggestion to do the brake pedal first before the clutch was a smart move.

Don't really plan on any other mods. Want to keep it pretty stock and concentrate on maintenance. Car already had the rennline shifter, so with the pedals I'm pretty happy with it now.

Heh heh, good one.

An alcantara shift boot would look pretty sweet with those pedals.

Honestly I don't feel a difference. I just like the way they look.

I'm surprised Porsche doesn't put pedals like this on their cars stock.

Ok ok ok. I did also think that might be my next mod. But honestly I'm really in love with the sound of this car. I was surprised at how good it sounds. I know a Fister exhaust would be much better but it sounds pretty good so far. I think I need to do my engine mounts first but , um yah, I think exhaust might be in the cards. Maybe new rims too. The Turbo twists are ok but not the greatest. ****, there goes the idea of keeping it stock.

Yeah, just start with a new cold air intake. C'mon, just one more mod.
What could possibly happen? It's not like one thing leads to another, or anything.

That sure does look purdy! Do these intakes add more to the sound?

Lol, I agree you have started on the slippery slope.
It's a nice start.

They look great - good Job! You do know that you're missing the lower right screw on the dead pedal yes? As others have said, it's a slippery slope... Good Luck
