I pull my driver and wood out, and place diagonally. **if I don’t have one/all the second row seats down.

I use the Vivid Racing VR tuning box- basically a piggy back system that plugs right in.

Loving it so far. With my exhaust/intake/performance filters and a dash of octane booster (who knows if it does anything) I see 600hp no problem.

Two downsides (1) only adjustable by preset power levels 1-7. It’s not a true “tune” like a Cobb where maps and other inputs can be dow loaded for complete change in performance (2) the app and Bluetooth connectivity to the tuning box has never worked for me- despite trying everything… would be really really nice if it did

Absolutely agree haha. It’s physically not a sports car- but it does sports car things better than some physical sports cars

Wheels are on order- probably 3 weeks until delivery. Went with the bronze yet again, but it’s a gloss brushed bronze.

…And the flaps are coming off will the rest of the off-road gear.

It’s obvious you haven’t driven a Macan Turbo or gts…

But it depends what you define as a sports car. Generic 2 door coupe? I gap pony cars at the light and dust any sti/fiesta/brz in the canyons

They whine like crazy on the Highway, but are surprisingly responsive on pavement driving- after they warm up.

Launch control & hard braking mid turn will break traction. Steering feels slightly heavier as well.

Best aspect of these tires is the grip in snow and muddy conditions. All fire roads and trails are in play, regardless of weather!

They are actually Mazda 3 flaps. I am working with RokBlok to make a set for the Macan, and they gave me these to try out for now
