Aside from driving and cleaning the car I haven't been doing much but am up to 2100 miles and picked up the car in late January. Also, I think I landed on what might be my favorite modern feature with the car: the auto rev matching with the 6mt. I fricken love this setting and so glad I don't have to learn how to heel-toe. Initially I didn't know what to think of this but I effing love it now.

Sometime soon I will be getting my Michelin PS4's back on the wheels and adding some 15mm spacers all the way around.

You can also get the mesh (if using metal, make sure its stainless), stainless rivets and make it a siy project.
This Ali item looks almost identical to the $900 option being offered stateside.
I’ll see how it goes and report back.

Verdict was: 15mm front 12mm rear. Currently waiting to see the finished product at the shop.

RW carbon rear spoiler. Perfect fit. Easy install. Removing the OEM spoiler and tape residue was a bit of a pita until I remembered I had one of those 3M stripe off wheels. Once I found it and hooked it up to my drill, adhesive was gone in a couple of minutes. That thing works great!

Also considering bring the HAS lower past the port install 10mm height.
I have the same but stayed with 9.5F w/ 285s (better curb protection) and 11.0R w/ 305s. As a decent photographer, I would suggest getting the wheels in the sun to really show them off in your photos.

Yeah, a caramel or toffee wheel is a must.

Thanks. Definitely not a photographer (obviously) 😁
Did you end up going 305/30 in the rear then on the 20x11?

Sunnier pic attached for reference lol.

- PPF front and side skirts
- Stadale Design front gaurd, not sure how much i like it yet, it seems unstable the way it is installed; but i dont hear it bouncing while driving so maybe i will keep it
- Stadale Design oil cooler gaurd, very happy with this.

Also got the Stradale Design side gaurds, but they seemed like a pain to get in. I do have some plastic gaurds from the manufacturer on mine, so i dont think i will install them.

Would like to do gold powdered coated rims like the other user in this threas, but probably not anytime soon.

Back on the dyno.

Mike Botti has had the car for a few weeks and started tuning it on Monday. Hoping to get it back dialed in and ready to rip soon.

(I stole this pic from TheShopCT IG)

Edit: Just heard from Mike. Seems like there is an issue with my CSF Manifold. He said the IATs were the highest he had ever seen on the dyno with an S58 with 6 fans running and 60 degree ambient air temp.

This is not good. I just want to enjoy this thing. I have no luck. Spent $7k to buy the best manifold on the market and I get one that's potentially defective. Thank god there's a lifetime warranty. I'd sell the car before I'd buy a replacement.

This also precisely why I abandoned remote tuning. I knew something was off with the car. If you're going this far down the rabbit hole, you really shouldn't remote tune the car. If I didn't keep pushing to have the car looked at, I would have blown the engine.

Was at the shop recently and saw it. Looks really good, super agressive. Hopefully you get it sorted soon.
