God bless ya man for your honesty and trust. Iāve done the same thing. Everyone told me donāt do it. I didnāt listen and luckily I only lost a lot of opportunity cost at the dealerships. Many on here try to tell new guys the same thing, itās a BMW, they are Toyota & donāt have the tools or...
Unless @FuzzyRev85 is running your dealership, Iād say 99% of them shouldnāt be working on our cars. Be extra careful if you go this route. Many of us are now at independent mechanics or some have the know how to do it themselves (best method). But I wouldnāt let your brand new car be that test...
My stablemate last weekend totally agrees with ya. He had a 430. I love the 430s & 458s track ability! You better stay on this forum amigo and keep us posted. Ferraris are no doubt fantastic cars. He said he wouldnāt drive anything else. More below ...
Not many cars are louder on track. Thatās for sure ?
If I dailyāed her more, Iād pick the touring as well. It makes such a HUGE difference w/ either of those AWE exhaust!!
Tracking it is! You will definitely enjoy her more. Itās amazing what these can do on track, or the likes of the other cars 2x the price you can run with. So happy you found one ?
Their customer service has been great for me. But I was pretty disappointed about this one. At least it happened on my 3rd track day (Sunday) right before lunch. So I got ½ a day in. And I didnāt get hurt! Another bonus
Besides the front control arms, I havenāt broken any other SPL parts. Yet ...
Mine was called Phantom gray (grey). Same color. Love it! I have PPF w/ ceramic coat. Even when it hasnāt been washed in weeks it looks the same ?. Thus, I absolutely love the color (and red interior too). Everyone will ask you if you wrapped it btw, lol.
Happy for you amigo! Will you be...
Will do mate! Yes 5 front and 5 rear. I actually liked being on 7 clicks better & may go back to that. It just felt, smootherā¦. Anyway, Iām looking forward to all that info as well. He did tell me not to get all bunched up on rake because that number can change based on tires, where you measure...
The bulletin clearly states all the things we could have done wrong during the installation. Their way of saying we did nothing wrong butā¦. you should have done this instead. And now - introducing our new upgraded part that solves all those issues you idiots may do to our parts ...
Overall itās a better bolt and they recommended changing them both (comes as a set). This is the pair ? for our car

I bought some things from them direct and others from various vendors I suppose - nothing nada...
Jesse sold me one from his website and it has been bullet proof. At least for track use in my stock engine, catless downpipe with the throttle mashed down for 30 minute sessions in Florida heat.
Mine feels like a glove. But coming from a MX5 (still own it) and a S2K, my viewpoint is a bit skewed.
How about this lighter version with a B58 engine mated to the ZF transmission ?

Damn I wish you werenāt selling ?
Love ? your exhaust! Talking the muzzle off her mouth is a must imo ?
Why stop now?
My wife loves your car and your garage. My friend hates you too:hater: ?
If you fast forward about 2 minutes past the garbage intro, we really like Red Flags Pod. They are absolutely hilarious and once they settle in, pretty spot on. The latest one they had an Elizabeth Blackstock with them and it was really good listening to her take as well.
