Timely thread.... I will pick up my new to me 99 Boxster in a week or so (the Driven Oil test car on the PCA website). I plan on doing about 3 track days a year. I have been doing HPDEs for about 15 years and raced about a year in the middle of that.
Is going square an appreciable performance gain? Performance loss (I hear possible brake overheating)? Not really worth it for street/HPDE? I had a S2000 setup for the track and going square helped balance the car out immensely (with other suspension changes).
If going square, is it recommended to get a stiffer front sway bar to dial out some of the possible oversteer?
I just sold a 996 that was on PSS10s that I was ok with the stiffness for the street. Also, the lowering gave a good compromise of camber for street/HPDE. Is there a preferred street/HPDE setup for the Boxster (maybe just get used Spec Boxster PSS9's?)
Thanks
