[Felix]

The only modification I've had to make was fitting a starter motor.

Mmmm, lets see if I can remember my recipe.

Take one standard 996 bip
then add...
54mm full Sil-Motor system and re-chip
STM 48 tooth slipper
AP 6 pots with Performance Friction 95 pads
AP adjustable ratio/span master cylinder
Renthal quick release sprocket carrier with 38 rear and 14 front
Marchesini magnesium 5 spokes
Tec Moto rearsets
Suspension set up by Sabre Sport GP team

Once you have all ingredients together, stir in some gravel, grass and tarmac.
Leave to dry for a few hours and you have a perfect Slut, ready to serve.
