crios -

does the car seem a lot quicker/zippier now that you have the LWFW?? I had done a LWFW on a couple prior cars...a miata and an RX7.... on both those cars, it did feel like it revved up quicker, and shifted mor easily... how do you like it on the Boxster???

how much did all that work run you??

[crios]

I spent around 3K with everything listed, including oil change and trans oil change. It would have easily cost me 5k plus at a dealer.

My car does drive great, very responsive and love the feel of it. My comparison of before though was from a car in bad condition, busted motor mount, clutch worn down to the rivets, so any change was a positive change.

The sound in nuetral is fine, but again I have a new motor mount, I hardly feel anything. I do hear the sound if I get out of the car and put my ear to the ground, but no sound in the cabin.

Jake, why did Porsche make some cars with a single row IMS and other with a double row? Which ones seem to fail more?

I figured it was preobably the CV joint clunking or the trunk monkey nice pics, thanks!

I think disclaimers should be used posting or replying to theads If a conflict of interest could be claimed.

such as:

WARNING: I make a living selling/installing parts for Porsche Boxsters.

This is totally uncalled for.

These people are experts because they make a living working on these cars and while it is true they are here to incite business, they are also here to inform and educate. It is up to the consumer to research and judge if the information given here is valid and the adviser is sincere. In this case, the man was giving free advice with no intent in his statement to sell anything.

Would you prefer if some backyard mechanic gave out advice who "thinks" they know, only because they don't make money at working on Porsches?

Why the hell does it matter what I do to make a living? I drove one of these cars to my shop today and I am a Porsche Enthusiast just like you.

Hating the vendors won't get your vehicle very developed.. Porsche doesn't give a damn about your car after the sale, so you'll be relying on people just like me for as long as you continue to own it.

Plus, people know who I am, no need for a disclaimer. Just type it in Google.

Conflict of interest?! Seriously? Your bigger concerned should be advice that has no basis in experience from a source that to you exists only as an online persona. The last thing we want to do is drive off those who actually work on these cars and know what they are talking about.
