Very true. Just look at OP... he just bought his car around the same time as me. He’s already been through three sets of wheels. Lol.
Great time to be a GT4 owner with all these great mods from Dundon, BGB, Deman, etc. Just shows you how much Porsche held back with his car.

Quick Update as of 01/21..
Went out for a short drive in 20 degree temps with limited traction.. Initial impressions are very positive. The best way to describe the power add is going from stock catted headers to DMS headers.. Remember that extra kick in the pants from 3k to redline? It's just like that.. For me, I have been approaching this build in increments with IPD and TB first, followed by DMS headers and then GT3 exhaust conversion. With the DMS runners, the incremental difference is definitely noticeable and no mid range dip in the power band before rocketing to redline. Power delivery is smooth and quick.. For the track drivers out their, 2nd gear corner exits will be really appreciated as it pulls hard to north of 7K with no let down.. In the past, pulls toward redline runs out of steam once you go north of 6K.. That's it for now.. Will shake it down some more when it's not so cold outside and the roads are clear of salt and sand..

lol... I told her I wanted to buy a Civic because I needed a small commuter car with a backseat for baby. When I rolled up in the CTR, she was not amused.

Not a huge Civic guy but definitely dig your Raptor! Just picked up a Shadow Black one in November for my daily and was thinking long and hard about going with Leadfoot.
