Hi,
Many cars are seemingly Made for Modding. Great improvements can be made to the OEM design.
Not so with the Boxster. Porsche did a fair job of maximizing the design on their own. There are relatively mild gains, for what to me at least, seems an exorbitant cost.
Lots of Suppliers out there make some pretty hefty claims, but when you boil it all down, the gains available in HP, Braking and Handling are really limited, especially when compared to some of the gains achievable with some other cars, such as Mustangs, MB, any of the Japanese offerings, etc.
I think one risks upsetting the Balance of the Car quite easily if a comprehensive series of Mods are not planned out from the start. Unfortunately, most people do not do this and Mod in a Helter-Skelter fashion driven primarily by WOW factor and the present state of their checkbook. But whatever, they'll learn...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
