I made the following repairs:

-replaced the MAF with one I found locally from a wrecker for $75. Thought it would roll the dice instead of buying new and that not solve my issues. I cleared the CEL with my Durametric. No more CEL and it runs way way better. Better idle, smoother at low RPM range and the smell of over-fuelling from the exhaust is gone.

-I replaced the steering wheel airbag retainer frame with OEM porsche unit to fix the common horn honk issue. Works great now! No more issues.

And of course took it out for a nice drive. Cold but sunny today in Vancouver BC area!

My next repairs include engine mount and shocks/struts all around.

It sure is rewarding bringing this little Boxster back to life after some hard years.
