Spent some time trying to make the Toth splitter on the car more functional/actually functional, took some more weight out of the car, and did a lot of clean up work on things that aren't easily accessible while the car is fully put together.

Talked to a buddy who does custom sheetmetal work on Porsche restorations about how much body work would be needed to fit the 992 Cup sized slicks on the car (it's a lot, probably won't be going this route).

Took the long way into work this AM, around the point, then back along the river so I could actually get the oil warmed up.

Nothing like going out on the roads when it 0400 and there's no one else around.

Pure bliss.

Which Toth splitter, the three piece lip or the once piece?

What are you doing to your car? So far the last mods you posted are the same that I have. You going with bendable intake pipes or the solid metal ones?

Started the process of installing the 980s... 90mm Inconel Kline, bendable intake, 3.8 bar FPR, 1300cc injectors, perhaps a little tuning...

I want to do the FTD carbon wing, a little spendy though...

Those look awesome.

Decided that the long way in to work, is now the only way into work; added about 9kms to the drive, but the lack of traffic makes it so worthwhile.

The moon was brightest I've seen it in sometime, it was like daylight, and in the pic below, just wow!

once you get that done how much horsepower is that thing going to have?? I’ll be adding the ipd plenum and the 74mm throttle body. Thursday we are installing a test unit auto blip.
