Sway Bars / Coco's Cayman GT

Cocodrilo · #1 (**permalink**) 12-19-2006, 07:52 PM

As some of you know, I am working on my own supercharged "Cayman GT" project, using my seal grey CS as platform, while I am waiting on Neil Orton to ship me the blower

, I began already installing a few items in my seal grey CS. Heres my shopping list:

1) Cayman GT logo in gloss back (thanks to Eric @ BumperPlugs, nice job!)
2) Front lips and Carbon Wing by SpeedArt

3) Painted fog spear matte black (cheap mod)

4) Desnork/EvoMs/Milltek/Tubi, for the extra 50 HP

5) Centerconsole/doordoortrim painted sealgrey (thanks to local Bshop)
6) Forgeline SP3P wheels in gunmetal. Should arrive sometime next week.
7) ShortShifter and EVO shift Link (BumperPlugs)
8) HR Sway Bars

Once thing that I do want to mention, althought I dont track or AutoX, the front and rear sway bar mod is one of the best. "Street dyno" says car handles better, stiffer, corners like a gokart. I think it improves the cars stability by as much as 20%, maybe more, cant measure. But its a nice mod and worth every penny of it

. Thanks to AWE and Mike for the SB tip.

Kudos to Ken and this site of course, could not have done it myself without them.

(pictures willl be provided once i get my new camera and all cosmetic mods are in place).

Nice list of mods... Although for the intake you should likely do the GIAC flash...

Thanks Sharky. But I will do the flash (or remap) once I get the S/C from Orton, otherwise its a waste of dough right now. Any other mod you can recommend? I think I still have like a couple of bucks left in my bank account....

Oh you are right about that. If you're going the SC route, it'd be a waste to do the ECU. Hmm I'd consider making the car lighter too but that's a bit iffy for a street car.

Is yours PASM? If you're going the route of sways I wasn't sure what coil over kit you were going with. If the car is a street car the PSS9s work really well.

Nice mod options. I would love to get my done similar to your set up. What is the "damage"?

Peace,

Not sure what you mean? I am not a native English speaker but perhaps you are referring to the $....oh if so, with everything mmmm around $25K ...sure a lot of $, but here we have to pay over 60% import taxes on new cars, these mods are "cheap" comparably, a GT3 will cost me over $200K here.
