I've just bought a 997.1 Turbo

I like the sound of the sound of that, but it’ll be a long way down the list of spring maintenance and possible minor mods. Here’s the current list of jobs:

Engine mount check/probable change
Transmission mount check
Bank 2 O2 sensor change, as necessary (came on twice after sitting but not recent drives)
Transmission oil (12 year job)
Front disks and pads
Refit rear light (2 min job)
Air Con Condensor
Small scratch by offside air intake
Tiny paintless ding on rear wheel arch
Detail
FF Shift kit
Double din head unit
15mm Rear spacers
5mm Front spacers

Exhaust is a pipe dream at the moment (get it? )

I think you have the right approach. Get your standard car in tip top shape and then drive and enjoy it before investing in any significant and expensive mods. You need to be sure it’s a keeper before spending £££££ on enhancing it in my view. After a year or two, if it’s “the one” then go for it. Turbo’s are great cars but I got bored with my coupe and then cab. But different cars suit different people and driving styles. I recommend Europipe zorst BTW. Sounds wonderful for a Turbo with no drone, build quality and amazing customer service a delight. Good luck and enjoy your supercar!
