On the serious side, I noticed modding a Porsche is as bad as when I had my Vette. I found real quickly that you don;t go in and ask for a corvette altenator, you ask for a GM Altenator. I mean come on you can supercharge a frickin miata for around $2000, but to do a porsche your lookng at a starting price of around $7000.

Now I didn't buy my Box to street race, but when one of those cocky little kids roll up next to me, reving his engine, in his Mustang gt with spinners and walmart radio cranking out nothing but distortion, I would seriously like to at least show him the superiority of finely tuned German machine.
