I'm doing the Akra-Evo for sure. It'll be interesting to see how long I can hold out before doing it. Heard one in person on M2C and loved it.

I lasted 15 days 😂

Just installed the Turner Motorsports oil catch can today. Here's my write-up for others that are considering it.

Also, put on the Sliplo.

Could the clutch pedal on the cs use a bigger clutch stop like on my f82?

I don't find the clutch travel excessive. I had one years ago on my miata. I haven't had enough time in the seat to see how much travel there is before the clutch disengages or how much excessive travel there is beyond full disengagement. On the miata I modified the travel at both ends and was able to modulate the 6-puck clutch just fine. I'd be concerned with removing all the slop in the CS. It might cause a larger modulation issue because of the CDV.

I'm still learning the car to decide how it likes to be shifted.

I'm thinking to order up the Milltek EL system. Should fit same as the M2C on my CS. What do you guys think?

I don't like the dry carbon look of the MPE carbon shifter parts. Is there a wet carbon look for the CS MPE shifter to match the wet carbon transmission tunnel?

My CS is manual. Anyone know of a better shift knob for it? Preferably gloss carbon or something. I like the current red stitched alcantara boot.

Only for left hand drive cars. M3/4 MPerf part for right hand drive cars doesn't fit. I bought one and tried it.
