My 4C has a Eurocompulsion ECU and intake for power, a Quicksilver exhaust with helmholtz filter (no drone at all), Alfa Workshop front caster blocks (no more steering twitchyness) and 20 mm rear spacers to match the front with the blocks. Fixed all of the questionable factory decisions and now I have a rocket go cart.
Nice! I've had the EC V2 intake on backorder for almost five months now. I added some OZ Ultraleggera's which give me an additional 0.5" on all corners with some Michelin PSS (major improvement over the P-zero's) and the steering feel is insanely different. The drone I hear is not as bad in the Spider and more pronounced in the coupe. If i end up replacing, I think GMS's 3" complete exhaust albeit pricey eliminates the bottleneck as it relates to the turbo. Thereafter, I'll probably run the Alfaworks race ECU to tap into close to 300 HP.
I just noticed you're in Houston, not far from me. Very cool!

Met my crush tonight. Haven’t had the cat out in a month and finally got out for a drive. Ran across a new CS owner who had just completed break in. We ran the local “circuit” a couple times and was a blast. The car is fast. Only one opportunity to run from a roll through 1-2...prett even..the M2 was quick, what a great looking car too. Stop and talked to owner - fellow gear head.

That is sort of like saying you drove a GT instead of a 350R. I'm just saying......Having owned "real" M cars, I have to say that I would never have them in the same comparison as a Mustang if deciding between one or the other. Having said that, I would definitely have one as an additional car.

I drove an M240 a few times. There was something missing....a little too civil perhaps.

Yeah not a real M car but still lacking character.
