not yet tried the full throttle, urban streets are too short and I dunno how long would it take for the brakes to bring it to a stop from high speed... chasing cars around when I have chance to, once chase a 997 for a few lights, and he waved to me while I gave him a thumb at a red light. Feel good.

o yes it is when you have no money to spend every month on stuff like this.
you don't have 2 kids to feed and dont earn less than 17k a month

for me who ever sell it for the cheapest I get don't care who sell it, friend or not friend.
every dollar counts in the end.
like installing the bars if AK can not install the rear 1 then I would go to rainbow and do it at $850
willy just installed them and loving it.
his next mod is the FSD but not lower the car
