Thanks. I have never had great luck with spacers and vibration

with the new tune I assume you will be doing upgraded clutch some time in future?
I would get carbon fiber wrap for the seat backs.
enjoy!

I'm not sure. It was just starting to go. Over two three months the battery would slowly die.

The 997 is closer to the 991 than it is to the 996. I love the 996 as I think it is much more connected to the driver and the driving experience (raw) than the 997.
