Default "NEW" 996TT PLAYER ON BOARD

I'm now the new owner of a 2002 Cobalt Blue 996TT. (Delivered today)
However, I'm not a new Porsche or Turbo player. I currently also have a "92" 964 Turbo, as well.

I'm interested in knowing from the forum members, what are the most "useful" improvements" one can make to the 996TT. From a perusal of the postings, a GIAC "flash" seems to offer the most bang for the buck, along with a change in the air filter system, followed by an exhaust upgrade.

I'd appreciate members sharing their opinions, and better yet, their experiences with upgrades to the 996TT.

Thanks for the help.

Great looking TT!!! But PLEASE lower it on ROW sport suspension (unless you're an hardcore DE's then fit PSS9's), fit some clear side repeaters like here in Europe and remove those bumperettes things.
