Omar-

Ahh, it was late when I read your post (plus I had a couple of cocktails ). Now I understand.

The new wheels will look great on your car! Be sure to post a pic. when they're installed.

Skip, as I stated, its so my OEM seats and wheels dont get marked up. The leather frays way to easily on our seats. So I will take them out and keep them in storage. Also, I am always worried about marks on my rims...so I will take them off and keep them stored. (That and I increase the grip of the car to more then that of my old NSX.)

As for the headers, why not? Lighter, free-er flowing headers are always good, IMO.

Martin, here you go...kinda...:-):-))

Beautiful 328!

F40 seats may look really good, POST PICS!

360 wheels update the car nicely.

Ah, the joys of an open Ferrari!

Best!
Ben.

I have one question........WHY are you doing these so-called upgrades??

I understand the Tubi & test pipes, though the Tubi won't give you any noticeable increase in performance. And I understand the Hill pedals for appearance......but.....F40 seats and new headers; what's your reasoning??

My car is back form the shop with a tubi and cat by installed.

Here is a list of future upgrades to come. For the record all will be bolt ons; that can be reverted to OEM (since I am keeping the parts) in a few hours. Also with things like the seats and rims, the added benifit is that the OEM will not get scuffed/marked up.


Current upgrades:
Tubi exhaust
testpipes

Have and will install soon:
Hill Engin. Pedal + dead pedal + knob

Soon upgrades (ext):
360 star rims
Hill Engin. custom Spacers (front)
-as for the rear, still under discussion on the proper course of action

Soon upgrades (int):
F40 seats.

Long term(mech):
Custom header..I need some help sourcing a beatup and broken header so that I can use it as a base for my free-flowing one...I dont want to take mine off...as then I would not be able to drive. :-)

Suggestions/thoughts are welcome and encouraged.
