Very nice! Silver Rose Turbo S? I do like that color. Lowered, bridge spoiler & spliter, Cup 1, looks like big reds? Euro rear bumper and 968 mirrors?

RUF wheels FTW. I like the 16" RUF wheels even better but they won't fit my late offset car :(

Great car Darwin, how is the 3L holding up?

3L is going strong. I don’t push it so I don’t expect any issues. I just swapped over to a Link Monsoon-X ECU.

How are you getting on with the Link software?
I have found it easier to use than the Electromotive software on a friend's muscle car.

I agree. Especially when it comes to setting up an initial base map. I remember it took me forever to get my IOT and TOG right.

So if I ever installed my Link Extreme G4 (not G4+) would you guys have maps ready to go? :)

Edit to include compulsory picture of my car at the old garage :)

I don’t unfortunately. If you’re installing a G4 or G4+, You can’t use mine (Monsoon-X). The format is different.

BUT I could send it to you and you could transfer all the information! (AFR/ignition tables. Your Aux outputs/inputs would be different since you have way more than me)

951’s are looking so clean gentlemen what a great time of year to be enjoying them as well. My recent purchase and project as they don’t come this way there just straight carbon so I added the Kevlar look and vinyl script to get a more authentic replica. I ran it opposite opposing grain on the weave hopefully nobody chews me out as it’s been known to happen…..
