2001 Boxster S 986 mod recommendations?

[magicmill]

Hello, I am a new Porsche owner and I would like to have cheap mod recommendations for my budget Porsche project.

You don't say what your goal is other than cheap, so Here's a few links and you can figure out what you like.

Neil made some great short videos of his mods and maintenance Here's a link to the threads he started: 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners - Search Results

Geraint did some really nice appearance mods & work on his '03: Ger's 2003 Porsche Boxster S

James made some good videos of his mods for performance and track while he had his 986s: https://www.youtube.com/@NewArt1/videos?view=0&sort=dd&shelf_id=0

Of course there's many more, but that's a good start.

Keep it original and enjoy it - there is no such thing as a cheap mod that is going to give you a noticeable power increase.

Cheap and budget are two words that don't normally go with Porsche and project.

I've done a good 6-8 986 "projects". Nothing was cheap or budget.

Good luck and show us what you're doing!

While you can definitely spend a ton of money on gaining 5 hp, you can do far more with fewer $. You just need to think outside the box...


This forum is a great resource for ideas. You just need to do the homework.

Here's an example -

Custom mods are an expression of ourselves and start with a vision for our cars. Make it unique, make it yours, have fun with it, and drive the **************** out of it.
