Do you have a source for that x73 suspension? I would like one too, but was under the impression this was not available anymore?
I'm frantically searching around, Carnewal might have it...?

So I've mapped out the plan with the car...PSS10's are what I'm hearing are great for the car. The 997.2 GT2RS IC's I've done some reading on and seem to be great for this car. IPD Plenum / Y-pipe down the road; I've read varying reviews on the IPD however. Are there some solid dyno results from it?

Thank you sir

Get ur IC's & IPD plenum here;

https://markskituning.com/

Or buy these at half price+!
Superior in every way to plastic oem end tanks.

Evoms is considered superior & design for 996TT as well.

PSS10's would be a nice upgrade, but be sure to give the Ohlins Road and Track a look.

I currently have the PSS9 and plan to eventually switch them out for Ohlins.

Thanks for the input. You think these will be superior to the 997.2 GT2RS ICs? I've been looking alot at Markski's stuff, seems awesome. I plan on giving him a call.

I've heard great things about Ohlins. Thanks - I'll give them a look too! Fairly same price as the PSS10's too. Do you think they'd ride nicer than the PSS10s?
