+1 on AGM batteries. This is the one I put in my 2003 Boxster 3 years ago and it's great, and yes, it's a direct replacement and fits perfectly. I just disconnect the negative terminal and I can leave it for months without a trickle charger, and it doesn't discharge much at all. I left it for 1 month in December when it was -20° F for several nights in a row, and without a trickle charger it still had 12.8 V when I got home. Of course, be sure not to latch the hood (I remove the catch, two 10 mm head bolts, so it can't latch).

I'd love to build something like this with 1bar of boost on it! Any plans to go turbo on the next one?

I have a boosted version of this, with all the internals developed. This includes valve train, valves, and camshafts.
BUT... The price tag that it has costs more than 5 Boxsters.

Guys I am still here and haven't driven the beast since parking it in my garage from when I picked her up  . The weather has been crap, we had the grandchildren all last weekend so car playing was off the table  Oh and there is this thing called work that tends to get in the way ! But I am off from work today and the weather is playing nice so first thing is to get her warmed up and on the lift so I can drain the break in oil. After that I plan on getting some miles on her. I will do my best to get some video/audio and post on here. I have never posted a video from my phone so I have to figure that out. I guess upload to Utube ?
