Got my 992 wrapped last year by Wrap Effects in KC. KPMF Phantom Black.
Performance tune: stage 1 by M-Engineering; brings it to a bit over 600bhp. I need to dyno it to get actuals. Inaccurate (phone-based) 0-60 sub 3.0; on track it feels like it is glued to the asphalt. Unreal grip. I absolutely love this car! [Reply]
A few months ago I got messed up, browsed Facebook Marketplace, and ended up with a 2003 Lincoln Town Car limo. One of my employees/friends enjoys driving us around so we do a lot of nights out with friends and family. We used it enough that I decided to upgrade. Went to Colorado last week and brought home this 2014 Chrysler 300. Holy shit it's nice. This is the way to go out for an evening!
Question - I am spending some money on upgrading a 2009 Audi A4 with 138k miles. Bought the car to be a daily driver but have been having fun making it a little more sporty. Got a tune done to it, have replaced all the broken interior trim and I’m toying with the idea of adding some magnaflow cat back exhaust. Never done that to any of my vehicles. Just looking for opinions as to worth it or not for a little extra HP and street noise. [Reply]

If it is a 2.0T a performance downpipe with the exhaust upgrade would get you a little gain. Is is worth it? That is up to what you are willing to spend. There might even be some larger turbos available but still, it is still an 2.0 liter. [Reply]

Yeah. I figured it wouldn’t be a lot. Just lookin to tweak a little here and there. I see the magnaflow exhaust is $1600 just for the exhaust. So probably close to 2k with an install. Probably would rather spend that on custom wheels. [Reply]

I saw a similarly built one at Greaserama in 2011.
Likewise it was a true Australian Ford Falcon, not sure what it had for an engine but it was a Ford V-8. His "blower" was also there for looks only and was spun by an electric motor he could turn on and off from the driver's seat.
