Ready to Roll!
Titan did a fantastic job on this car. I am very pleased. Still have some more graphics to go on the outside, but this is what they could done for now. Ready to give it a whirl at Sebring this weekend.

Yup, Kolken.
I have the PSS9 setup. Do you expect it will handle considerably different with that wing? I definitely don't want to wad it up. Thanks for the reminder!

I don't think that the wing will cause it to feel or handle much differently. The difference will be from the weight reduction, the cage and its stiffening effects, and the PSS9's if they weren't there before the build.
What about tires?
Did you measure weight before and after?
Did you measure ride height pre and post?

I've been using the Bilsteins for a year or more now, so the only real difference will be the wing and the stiffening effect of the cage. I'm thinking the weight won't be much different since what was taken out is more or less balanced out by the increased weight of the cage itself. I did not weight it since this work was done, but know that it was around 2900 before the cage work. I also haven't measured the height before or after.
As for the tires, nothing new. I've been running Hoosiers for some time now.

Nice ***! Are you guys running accusumps? I assume your transplants have the baffled pan? Anyone tried running 5lug cup/GA wheels under a boxster? It seems like the room is there but haven't tried it yet.

J R,
I am not running an accusump or an extended oil pan. I do have the GT3 internal baffling system that was modified by J3 Racing in Atl...I believe.
I have full Motec data and under heavy braking and turning left and right the oil pressure stays above 25psi. Also during these times of lower than desired oil pressures the rpm's are also very low (off the gas).
Knock on wood...I've been running the 3.6 since '07/'08ish full race schedule with no _________.
I don't know what size tires wheel you are referring to but I'm running 10" rears with either 295 or 315 Hoosier Slicks. Fronts are 9" 255 slicks.
