2010 carrera sport chrono pkg
the x pipe is perfect not to loud but makes the car sound mean
the RSS engine mounts are aggressive and take time to get used to but the car is awesome now handles much tighter and shifts cleaner. Their is a change in vibration but I think it's worth the upside in how it feels. More street racer feeling than touring car. It's not for everyone better get a test drive first to be safe. I am coming from a 1976 turbo with all poly bushings and sport shocks so it feels good to me.

my video of the x pipe is on the fabspeed website under 2009 - 2011 997.2 x pipe. Look for my grey car.

Car looks great! The alcantara wheel/**** is such a good interior upgrade. Well done!

Funny enough, I actually saw you in Greenwich. I was admiring your lip and couldn't remember why the car looked so familiar.
