Well my gf and i just bought a new camera (Canon EOS Rebel T1i) so we went out and fucked around with it for some night shots. Any advice on the camera or settings to try would be greatly appreciated. ---

If your not already, get a tripod and use it. With the camera on a tripod, set it to the lowest ISO and put the timer delay on so you wont be touching the camera when it fires. The lower ISO will require longer exposure times, but the pictures will have little-no noise and be very crisp. Preferably you would want to use an aux flash too. The on-camera flash tends to suck. Nice car though! 🙂 ---

Spencer, that’s accurate. It takes tiny turbos to do it as well. You don’t even need something like twin 28R’s. Very clean looking car :tup: Needs moar GT2 wing! ---

The stock turbos are k16’s and if you hybrid them to k16/16g along with the tune, exhaust, etc you can add another 140ish HP and stay around 4k$ in mods. Not sure if I want to jump to new turbos yet or want to max the k16’s out first. Anyone have thoughts on that? ---

we babysit an X-50 car with software, exhaust and DV’s. it’s pretty stout to say the least. there’s a super light flywheel and spec clutch in it. i personally hate it, it’s nearly undriveable in traffic. it’s like a light switch, it’ll nearly lock on downshifts if you’re not on your toes. race or track car? fine, traffic? bad idea… call me a fairy if you want. if you do have the trans down/engine out, i would definitely change out the slave and cannonball if it hasn’t been done b/c it’s pita in the car (done it…) and it’s only a matter of time until one or the other craps out on you. lay the groundwork with a clutch/flywheel, exhaust, valves, and software from a company that you can upgrade from if you swap the snails. have you changed the coils out? they’re almost as bad as VW or BMW coilpacks and will piss you off guaranteed when they crap out. who are you planning to have do the tune on the hybrid’d turbos? EPL’s hot as of late down in CT near Daddie. road trip? ---

Greatly appreciate your post spam16v.

Ugh beautiful car, I would love to get into either a 997tt or a 996tt down the road. I wonder how expensive these are to mod. Can’t be much more than my S4 lol. ---

[switzerperformanceinnovation.com](http://switzerperformanceinnovation.com) personally i have not, but i’m just the labor force at the shop, Jason/Bracketracer sits online surfing most of the day and takes in everything that is online. I almost dropped an application to work for Tony @ EPL when i was living in West Hartford working at the Porsche dealer there. we work on an aircooled 930 widebody slant nose that does Onelapofamerica every year, and the EPL turbo cars clean up every year. ---

Such a nice car. How do you like the interior? I sat in a 911 Turbo at the Detriot auto show a few years back. I could not believe how comfortable the seats where. It is hard for me to fit comfortably in a two seater. I like left knee space where I can bend my knee where I want it without whacking the steering wheel.
