nice car! is that a new version of their exhaust (mid section) system? I dont see it in their website...it should sound different and better because of the X-portion which our cars didn't have until the 997 GT3s.

I was tempted to do the headers and 200 cell cats, along with changing out the rear bumper and run a center exit exhaust, but frankly I didn’t want to spend the money, as I have already dropped a substantial amount of cash into this project.

Beautiful job by GMG.
BTW, how did they attach that sweet CF splitter? Looks much cleaner than my double sided tape, cup splitter approach.
Also, I'm wondering tho about the approach to adding larger/stiffer ARBs versus upgrading the springs/dampers as the first choice in improving the handling dynamics. Anyone have any thoughts on the theory here?

I've got all the GMG WC stuff on my GT3 + Moton 2-way remote canister race dampers with 70nm F/ 90nm R springs. I notice that the OP doesn't seem to have monoball inner bushes on his bottom arms? Seems an odd omission given all the other mods.
I love how it all works together & it does make the car wonderful on track & improves on the standard suspension on the road too. My only criticism of the GMG WC stuff is their ARBs. The red poly bushes supplied simply didn't work on my car. The rear bushes deformed due to being too close to the bend of the bar (and can be seen in the posted pix). The bushes at both ends would bind really badly & no amount of lubrication would fix this for more than a day. In the end I had to custom fabricate the U clamps and source poly bushes from SuperPro in Australia.
You will love the car, I'm sure but keep an eye on those bushes!
PS:
The rear bar is the same diameter as the stock front bar - 28mm, IIRC.
ETA:
You should look at using the cup locking plates for the rear toe eccentrics now that you can use the turnbuckle to adjust the toe. I found that the toe would drift out of spec without locking up the eccentric.
