Congrats, brother, I am glad ytou were able to find the car you were looking for.
First thing I did with mine (other than K40 radar detector/laser suppressor) was the Evo Stage 1 upgrade.
Mods for this Spring include a new exhaust (can't decide between Europipe Loud and Fabspeed Super Sport) and the X73 suspension.

Just finished two coats of NXT. This weekend I think I am going to clay bar and go through all the steps from scratch to bring the paint to brand new condition. Even though it is 95% perfect. What the heck I am in need of a good work out!!! LOL
Cheers to you all!!!!

Well they are an independant shop that specializes in Porsches. Also sell a lot of other exotics. Sales expereince was very good. I personally saw the car twice and then negiotiated pretty much over email abd phone. A lot of it while I was away in Boston for business. Also the set up GREAT financing for me through a credit union. So that was a huge plus.
That being said the post sell part lacked a little. But I did get there pretty late in the evening. There was no walk through of the car etc. Handed me the keys and said go get it!! LOL
I would buy from them again.

I need to start up the search function on the forum. Went from researching buying a Turbo to now possibly modding it. I don't want to go so radical that I can't reverse what I did in case of an issue.
Back in the Corvette days it was, Cat Back, Intake, Tune, Headers with high flow cats and the cam. Then you go to forced induction. That is another reason I like Porsches over Vettes so much. It seems you don't have to get too radical to make some decent gains in HP.
To pick up 30 HP on a C6 Vette you are looking at Catback, Headers with high flow cats, and Tune. Pretty radical for 30 ponies IMO!

Stage 1 Just Ecu and Air Filter HP 450-470
Stage 2 All the Above plus Exhaust and Divertor Valves 490 510
Stage 3. All the Above plus k24 Race Turbo's which come standard on Turbo S, X50's and Gt2 with this setup there is actually a program that will get you a reliable 600HP and that is called Stage 4.
The Sky is the limit with HP on these cars, so take your time and do your research. Best of Luck.
