Would like to see how you interpret the difference between diffusers on the track!

Interested to see your results with the quik-latches for the bumper. If you could take some pics and do a write up, that would be great.

I'm not gonna do anything special.

I'll just follow the instructions for the Move Over Racing QR kit and use a couple packs of 65 cent nylon spacers, saving myself about $100 over the MOR kit as another local demonstrated.

Hope to install it this weekend along with some other goodies I've accumulated including the 86 Nanny PD and Quik-latches for my front bumper.
AWESOME BUILD!!!! Let me know if you are willing to part with your Driveway Labs Type1 if this works out better for your track experience!

Thanks!

The DWL diffuser will probably end up on eBay for local pickup only. It's too expensive to ship and there's already lots of interest in 86Atlanta.

I am sure there is a lot of interest after seeing it on YOUR car!!!! I will be watching to see your commentary on the difference.

Installed the Velox Motorsports rear diffuser with optional suspension covers today.

Took a few pics of the install and the final result. I had to trim the driver's side suspension cover just a little bit to clear the Dezod midpipe. Also trimmed the rear upper edge of the gas tank covers to get everything to fit nicely together.

































Very impressed with the fit and finish so far. Can't wait to do some high speed track testing with it.

Thanks @NotEric6 for producing such a high quality aero product!

Also took a few minutes to install the Beastronix 86Nanny PD



I am really going to enjoy being able to pedal dance and engage race mode with the push of a button!

How is your track schedule looking for the rest of the year? I gotta see this thing.

Taking the summer off from BRZ track days to coach weekends at the Porsche Experience Center.

Late this fall things may get verrry interesting with my car.

In the meantime.... they're finally here!!! Commence heavy breathing

Surprised to see that. I figure Porsche would only allow PDKs at the PEC.
