Here's pics of the car at the start and end of installation. I didn't take pics during the install as it's already well documented here.





And a terrible iPhone photo after install. It was getting dark and I didn't have time for good pics. I'll take better photos later, possibly in a photo studio, soon.


Surprise Sharkwerks X-pipe we found installed on the car already. Not complaining here.

Why the tune2air? Doesn't the Dension have Bluetooth?

I dunno. But I see pics of your car. Maybe your 911 was too sexy and needed moderator approval?!?

I know they're just pics, but your paint looks really well maintained. What wheels you going with or are you just changing to a winter setup?

thanks awrryan, just basic paint maintenance here (i try to park her in the shade haha) and try to give a basic wax twice a season (but this season only once).

your car is one of my favs here. very clean.

Had a center radiator installed before the next track weekend.

I can tell you already - oil temps dropped from 225 down to barely over 200.

Hi Kellen,

LOL Lvt19672! No bass tubes, that'd be too cool for me.

I made those tubes that custom fit right below the rear window for all my crap
like all my car manuals, service reports, etc. Tube for all my golf gear and
one with all my tyre repair tools, etc.

Space is TIGHT and valuable!

****! I thought your car looked clean from the original pics. Looks like new. What's that blue called? Thanks for the comment about my car. I never take it for granted. I love it. Feel really lucky, but I promise you my paint is nowhere near as nice as yours. Swirl marks everywhere.
