Me too! They all have there pros and cons. Prices really don't seem to be that different. I will choose the one that can be taken out the easiest cuz this seems to be the biggest issue. Don't want to mess with warranty issues

you can already clear all the codes and see which map you are on....(the needle guage was working, but since we requested the digital, that function is on its way)

Including warranty tape over the ECU box and TMAP sensor. It's coming. The question is.... How long until we have access to replacement tape???

Dunno if you got a different SA or how you came off to the guys.... I pretty much told him what it was doing, told him it wasn't the "sticky brake" issue, and that I didn't want the 29.2 upgrade. Maybe I should have just played stupid.

Yeah good luck finding that or getting it together....

I think Scalbert's testing is the most impartial and thorough we've had so far.

Nebster · 04-07-2009, 10:08 PM

thats what the best thing to do is. and then if they say something bizarre tell them no way in hell

Wrong.

Had a friend who got the 996 turbo a few years ago and said the same thing. Was still a hundred times faster than he needed to be, and a hundred times faster than all of his friends....

But still he could not stop modding. If you are into modding, it doesn't matter what you get, if there are mods out there for it, you will buy them.... I'm still trying to stay away from the bug....

He will probably want to put a lift kit on the 911 too so it will match his 335
