Just got one of these and a mic, it's usb so I got an extension that I hope works to get the mic near the back end. For placement I'll probably go with a dash mount. Has anyone tired a tow-hook...

It'll be interesting to see what happens with Cayman prices, I probably should prioritize other things and just keep the SLE. The other consideration is buying a 2nd small sports car like a GR86 or...

It's a heavy car but that's a different issue that can't easily be addressed.

By far the largest difference in a magride vs MCS suspension is the spring rates. I'm running 4.5x oem rates up front...

No, TTY are designed to permanently elongate a bit which is why you can't re-use them. The stretch negates some of the issues with friction in the threads when torquing... assembly lube,...

For magride delete, get a ZL1 1LE suspension module. It's possible any non-magride sus module will work too, idk. Apparently the resistor kits are unreliable and cost a ton for what they are.

I have a BMW for a DD, it's not just peak power, the T6 spools super fast and torque is a straight line from low RPMS to redline, so there's more area under the curve.

Agreed, but the bolded part is backwards, magride is undersprung in sport and track modes, it needs to have soft spring rates in order for tour mode to work. The dampers are pretty amazing but...

Wow. How about a warranty claim?

If they won't replace them I'd try an ozone treatment. Some car detail shops may be familiar.

I'd bet it's NBD unless it's cold out, you'll probably get a bit more startup wear at low temps and slightly reduced fuel economy.

Looks good!

I did my wheels and am happy with how it came out but the coating isn't very durable.

Also, they have a "dip dissolver" product and often a pressure washer will take it right off.

Looks good, you may be able to get a bit more camber up front though, 2.6 is usually possible.

MCS TT2 are a bit on the track oriented side, but would be a good option if the damping is calibrated for the spring rates you want, if not they can change the valving. Probably in the $4k range.
