got my 997tt back with mods
Thanks again to Arling and Tom at Lucent. Here is what they did to the car...
Techart Lowering Springs, painted wheels black, MPSC's, Fabspeed powdercoated tips, modified factory exhaust(sounds great), alignment adjusted.
First driving impressions...WOW. Msot of the push is gone from the car and the tires are like glue. I can't wait for 10/29 at Willow Springs.

Rich,
Would you please explain in more details the "modified factory exhaust" part? What was done, what difference does it make--louder, different sound?, and lastly, cost?
Also what was done with the "alignment adjustment"?
Thanks in advance.

The exhaust is noticeably louder...I think they remove some of the baffles. As far as the alignment, you would have to speak with Arling at Lucent Motors.
I am blown away with the improved handling...totally worth it.

OK, richk sent me these pics of his black TT to post.
Rich - the original pics were too large to post. Since they were a little "cloudy" I did a simple enhancement to clean them up a little. FYI, Tim
