I completely agree. Boxster is a driver's car, not a "tuners" car.

I was in the imports thing, but now I'm just enjoying the car, spend the $ for some nice sticky rubber and visit the gas station frequently.

You can get some good power with a bolt on turbo.
www.turbowerx.com

If you want more exteme power you have to do a custom engine build.

As far a suspension it depends on what your plans for the car, some guys have done a large number of suspension write ups. Use the search function and have fun.

Growing up the car magazines said how amazing Porsches are. Was I brainwashed? Somehow...I doubt it.
