Well... I decided to get-on-it coming home from work today and I grabbed 2nd gear then WHAM... BAM... BAM.. THUNK... THUNK... THUD... THUD... THUD. Now I'm replacing the axel on the driver's side. I might as well replace both sides. Busted bolts and end cap were caught by the pan (now I know why Porsche put a pan under the transmission). I'm having a hard time believing my motor had that much more power, I think the axel bolts must have become loose? Has anyone put a Boxster on a dyno before and after removing the snorkel?

I am surprised you did not hear the axle clunking prior to falling out.
