  1. Typical for Colorado...anyone know where to get OEM glass/installation? TIA!
  2. Peter, you might try resetting the windows. I believe this is done by lowering the window all of the way and holding the button down in this position for like 5 seconds (it might be raising it and holding it for 5 seconds?)
  3. Now that you mention the color...it doesn't look like it matches...may just be the angle.
  4. So you have MOST...you would need to find a DVD interface compatible with MOST. I do not know of any myself, but have heard of this one: http://www.nav-tv.com/index02.htm
  5. You mean someone has not heard of Eric @Bumperplugs? No way! That's what I have!
  6. The wastegate upgrade is STILL worth it. I was amazed at the midrange torque I got with the upgraded springs. Call Kevin @ Ultimate Motorwerks.
  7. Not saying this is your problem, but My control unit F alarm system had to be replaced (under warranty)
  8. It is riveted on and is not meant to be removed. It would become a projectile aimed at your head if it were not....which leads to the question...why would you put a stick-on on the airbag cover? are you asking for trouble? Loren has a better idea...trade your silver for a colored one from another owner.
  9. First biggest question, Do you plan on modding and if so how much? Second biggy....how do you plan to use the vehicle street, rack or combo? The answer to these will have a significant effect on the options you choose. For example: If you plan on substantial modding (like turbos, intercoolers, suspension, intake, exhaust, et. al.), then I suggest you get one without any options. If you plan on more minor mods (stage 1-4 say) then you have a couple of decisions...X50 package with upgraded turbos (K24) and other goodies which will start you at a diferent place. If no mods are planned...then get the most options you can afford.
  10. Porsche recommended specs are for OEM tires and sizes and are meant for the typical (average) street driver. Many folks no longer have the OEM tires and go to the track. Does not seem anything like the oil debate...OMG this thread could capture the N vs. O debate and the Oils spec debate...the thread is definately doomed! Run away!!! BTW Porsche recommends 15K miles to oil change...you do that?
  11. If by feel you mean handling and ride comfort...I think it also depends on what tires: make and size you "wear". For example MPS2s in 295/40-18 I would go pretty close to Porsche recommended 36/44, but MPSC 315/30-18 I would go more 32/40 (and lower on the track).
  12. Not trying to start anything, but you must be sniffing the Nitrogen if you think it gives you a quieter/softer ride. The only advantage you will get is, perhaps, the lack of moisture compared with standard air filled. N2 and air being gases, in the conditions we are concerned with, will both act ideally (pv=nrt) and so will expand and contract to exactly the same volume at the same temperature. Even using Van Der Waal's equation to correct for the ever-so-slight deviations from idealness you'd encounter at high tire temp, the difference is so small you probably couldn't measure it. Now you may get a difference based on the fact that nitrogen has a slightly higher heat capacity than oxygen (it will reach a slightly lower temperature than oxygen if exposed to the same amount of heat), but the difference is very small, about 3 per cent, and since air is ~78% N2 to begin with, the final difference will be vanishingly small. Also, someone mentioned that N2 is three times larger than normal air, well, since normal air is, again, 78% N2, that does not really make sense. It is larger than O2 (which takes up the remaining 22% minus some change), but again, only by a few per cent.
  13. The problem with your post is that it makes no sense. . Sorry this makes no sense. There are no optional exhausts for the TT as Lauren says. Just aftermarket...and plenty of them.
  14. I agree with slant...UMW (Kevin)...give him a call.
  15. Forge DVs: http://www.forgemotorsport.com/content.asp...oduct=FMCL007PA
  16. Replacing them is not the difficult part...adjusting them correctly is. They need to be identical (both sides) and will need to open before you have TB shutdown.
  17. I recently had my alarm system control box replaced under warranty. The car would not even start.
  18. I bought the mesh on line added some egde piping and installed...about $25 total.
  19. Did you get the ones with rubber inserts? I worry about street shoes slipping w/o them. Maybe not? Yes I did, but I have ben told the pattern you can get on the non-rubber insert pedals is just fine.
  20. You will need to drill the stock pedals. It is not too hard with a sharp drill bit.
