Default Unleash the "Creamsicle"

Wanted to thank forum members - Vinnie from Gulf Performance for all the hard work, Dom @ GMG for some much needed improvements and Ivan from DCT for the nicest steering wheel I have ever seen ...

I only drove for an hour today and will need some more seat time..... but this is how the Turbo should come from the factory ....

She pulls hard thru all gears, sounds aggressive , no drone at all,,,,, shifts perfectly...

Long story short - impressive / must do performance mods ..--- . I am still not fond of the color - but plan to change that shortly .... :-)

Few mods;

GMG Exhaust = Amazing - nice and loud with no drone at all
GMG Springs = Perfect stance - still feeling them out on the road
GMG Wheels = Sweet (actually they are Champions but got them from GMG)
SSK Shifter = perfect (maybe could use a slightly shorter throw - but smooth)
Softronics Tune = So far perfect (only drove 30 miles today)
Clear Markers = Well, nice touch
DCT Carbon Wheel = OMG amazing ,,, work of art (btw - we simply painted the airbag black - looks perfect)


Will post up some better pictures soon ....

Great looking car

I was going to buy that exact wheel set although wanted a gloss black set of wheels

Yours are more of a satin but look great!
