Here we have a customers car from the American based tuners at Vivid Racing, a Porsche 997 C4S that received some expensive parts. Recently Vivid Racing released their Porsche 997 Twin-Turbo that accomplished a staggering 800 hp. For this car tuning project they started off by installing the NR Auto replica TechArt body kit, which gave it a new aggressive look. With the new car styling, the customer felt the need for aftermarket wheels to complete the aggressive body kit, and went with the HRE P43 wheels. The wheels measure 19×8.5 in the front, and 19×11 in the rear, and allows them to fit flush with new Porsche 997 widebody styling. These monoblock wheels definitely alter the appearance and add new dimensions to his car. Check out the photos after the jump and visit the guys at Vivid Racing for all your Porsche needs.

Vorsteiner has released the latest tuning package for the Porsche 997 Turbo which consists of a special aerodynamic kit and a new forged wheel package. Up front the car has a new front apron with large carbon fiber air intakes for the radiators and a removable dry carbon fiber spoiler which adds additional down force to the front and also protects the front apron from any road bumps. The car tuning company tried to maximize weight savings in the front side and they removed the car’s fog lights and replaced stock air ducts and hardware made from plastic with carbon fiber parts which are really light. The rear side received a new rear bumper with enlarged side intercooler vents that will improve the car’s airflow a lot. It also features a new rear diffuser made from carbon fiber with integrated twin aero fins and quad sport exhaust tips.
