"Both cars are fast in a straight line. Equally so in real terms. But introduce a few corners and the Cayman quickly, and literally, leaves the Z behind."

I think you're really lucky. If you actually received what you were expecting, you'd be upset how easy the leather picks up stains and looks dirty, but the dealer wouldn't help because it's a used...

Very cool. Hopefully their botched alarm system wiring job won't cause more unexpected stuff down the road. Do you know specifically what they did wrong on the install?

Agree, +1. They are barely noticeable, and to say they defile the exterior is a bit over the top.

You won't rub off the metal plating which should be fairly beefy. You can basically use anything for metal finishes as long as it doesn't remove material (i.e. sandpaper or grinding). Preserving the...

I can confirm this too. My Z really only has light orange peel on the rear bumper cover (my car is also black, so peel is more noticeable). It's pretty much uniform over the entire back of the car,...

I tested this yesterday. Cruising on the highway, and it went back into auto after ~5 seconds. Maybe it's different depending on how you push it, but when not pushing it's ~5 secs.

Interesting what I find a month later. I don't have a subscription to MT, so their observation is news to me. It certainly explains why I'm unfamiliar with the noise peeps are complaining about.

Does a stage 2 setup with about 375whp (est of course) assume a stock exhaust? What if someone were to then get an aftermarket exhaust. Do superchargers respond to larger exhausts as well as turbos?...

Does a 3" exhaust (vs. 2.5) really explain the big difference here? Extra pound, yet making 18 fewer horses. The mt should also have slightly less drivetrain loss.

I agree with everything wstar said. No shaking at all. Downshifting is fine enough, though I'm sure it's faster in a manual to go 6 -> 4, rather than 7 -> 6 -> 5 -> 4 in the AT.

Any need to reinstall the heatshields, or is the wrap sufficient? I assume for those not wrapping, the heatshields are still needed.

The smaller the sample, the more suspect the numbers. Torco was only used by one person, and that could've been a newer car still in the break-in phase, we don't know.
