Default Back in the saddle again… .2 RS

Last thread from my SY 7.1 GT3 … built it out with 992LWB, 991.2 Steering wheel, 3.8 R&P :
SY 997.1 Back in the saddle again

Now… my GRAIL car
19k miles
Tractive / DSC Coilovers
ERP Drop Links & Tarett
OS Giken Diff
Coolant Lines ✅

Came with Dundon Long Tube Headers and Mini Crack Pipe and it’s just too loud. Luckily a friend wanted to try it and swapped and to imagine the oem headers with Sharkwerks Race Exhaust (no mufflers) was much quieter. I’d like to go back to side muffler delete with valves and oem center muffler.

Congrats! 7.2 RS is always awesome.

Wow. Ok ... that does look like a really loud exhaust ....

Btw, that car looks like it's in amazing condition. Even the Alcantara hasn't balled up

Congrats!! Definitely grail status.

How does initial drive compare to your modded yellow one? Same drivetrain with mods right?

Wait I thought you sold the yellow one to buy a house, Sam. Did you decide to live out of an RS instead?

Congrats!!

Congrats!!!!

That was quick. So you're gonna be sub 1:55 at BW now right, because big ****? Hopefully, this car doesn't turn into a dust collector with low mileage.

He was already past that in the Speed yellow 7.1. I think when we went to BW this past Feb Sam had dipped into the 1:54s
