Looks good, nice stuff you got !!! I have the Aluminum Gas caps on both cars, it looks good but I was disappointed in the light weight, when I originally ordered it for the 911( Cayman came with it) I was expecting a real aluminum gas cap, I didn't realize it was plastic.
We had some flurry's this morning and it was I believe 34 degrees but I needed to take out the 911 for a spin, I never switched to my winter wheels so I am still on Summer tires and they don't like this cold weather, floored it on the upper end of 1st gear and they started spinning ... 2nd gear I kept the power on gradually ... damn these cars are fun. Is the t module something that just plugs into the OBD ? Also am curious did you ever consider getting the Durametric, I have it and it is pretty cool, you can see the over revs, last time I checked I only had one if I remember correctly, my 997.1 had quite a bit more but nothing bad but that car I bought used with 6k miles on it. |

That's for the t-design module. Similar to the smart top module I installed last year, it just mounts in line with the controller. Easy install. I haven't looked at a durametic. What does it do?

Durametric is the tool to talk to the Porsche Engine, read codes etc. Possibly other primary control systems as well...

In addition it allows you to reset the service intervals which I did on the 991 since the dealer forgot to do it. It allows 3 vin's and then it can no longer be used (at least the one I have) If you purchase it and decide you are selling the Porsche it will have 2 vins left so you can resell it. In my case I used 2 of the vin's (997 & 991) and haven't really found a reason to use the 3rd for the Cayman yet. |

LOL makes me wonder what my old 997TT would be worth now, though admittedly it was very high mileage.

High miles are a killer, even in today’s market. Probably 55-65, max, based on some of the BaT comps?
Meanwhile, perfect GT3 spec? https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...gt3-touring-8/ |
