don't worry, the blue painters tape above the muffler tips actually REDUCES weight. It is a lesser known fact.

I dynoed it and the post-stickers dyno gave me 11hp. Now, I do admit that the dyno was not on the same day as adding stickers takes time, but it was a dynojet. Proven results!!!

I can sell you some if you want. Only 200$ which is one of the best $$$/hp bargains you can get for our cars!!!

1973 2002Tii. My dad bought it new in 73. Rebuilt engine and MFI in 2012. Stock aside from slightly lower and stiffer suspension for some handling fun. I keep this one stock (or close to it) due to the pedigree. The 911 is my project fun" car. Both are keepers.

Don't worry about all that lighter bumpers etc. Just get a lighter girlfriend.

Or a muffler loud enough that your wife won't ride in it.
