Got these flow bois in the mail today. Now to set aside a day to install them and do some data logging. I'm afraid to touch my freshly paint corrected rear bumper.

Have fun! I'm glad mine are in and I don't want to do that job again!

I need to take a break from buying "toys" for my car, but I am SO tempted to pick up some 997.2 intercoolers.

You can't beat them for 750 a set but I'm worried about the end tanks leaking...there has been a few reports of them leaking and having to seal them which I would hate to do

I paid $500 shipped for my low mileage take-offs, so there are deals to be had. I also wouldn't let a few reports hold you back...think of how many 997.2TT are out there. Forums skew things heavily. Get them, pressure test them, reinforce by crimping and epoxy if needed, install...good to go.

Installed RSS engine mounts. I can confirm the feedback provided by others on this board. Very good way to spend $400 on this car. More connected feel, improved handling and very minor impact on NVH. If anything, I hear the engine slightly more, which is a good thing!

Is the front camera going to be used to see potential obstacles in front of the car (like curbs?)
