On Track..

In a previous article posted (http://automobilesatitsbest.blogspot.com/2014/08/aftermarket-mods-autofuture-design.html) I had paid a visit to Autofuture Design Sdn Bhd, a retailer of aftermarket parts and modifications. As added information, Autofuture Design is a representitive of BBS, Kelleners Sport, Carlsson and Bilstein as their sole distributor in Malaysia.

Recently, I was invited by Allan Tan, the general manager of Autofuture Design to a track day event organised by 9tro Malaysia to showcase their products. Their selected show or demo car was a Porsche 911 Carrera S (997) equipped with the Porsche Sport Chrono Pack along with the modifications seen above.



The venue selected for the event was the legendary Sepang F1 circuit. A track with 15 corners, complete with long fast bends and sharp turns that will push the car along with its modifications to its limit. On slow and bends bends like turn 1 and turn 2, that's where the adaptive Bilstein B8 suspension set up along with H&R anti sway bars and springs are pushed to their limit. Though the suspension is capable of handling the tightest hairpin turns, with a touch of a button, the suspension setting changes from sport mode to comfort and offers a smooth and comfy ride.

The Porsche 911 Carrera S was equipped with lightweight 20 inch aluminium BBS CH-R rims wrapped with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres which offer cornering grip that's second to none. Do bear in mind, Michelin produces tyres specifically for the all new Porsche 918 hypercar, then you'd understand why these tyres were chosen for the demo.


The full TechArt body kit for the Porsche 911 Carrera S (997) equipped not only improves its aesthetics but also delivers improved levels of downforce. In the image shown, the motorised rear spoiler has been replaced with a permanent rear spoiler which massively improves downforce on the rear wheels. The quad exhaust system by TechArt, enables the car to breath better and in my opinion delivers a better sounding exhaust note compared to the stock exhaust system.

Overall, the performance and aesthetics of the car has drastically improved with the new parts equipped. The car with its new suspension set up along with grippier tyres enables the car to corner flat without a hint of oversteer or understeer, body roll itself is out of the equation. Through, long fast bends, the car with its bodykit corners fast without drama with outstanding levels of control and downforce. All the parts and modifications were done and provided by Autofuture Design Sdn Bhd, with impressive results and maximised performance.
