Don't get your hopes up on those results.

Coil-Overs INSTALLED!!

Ahhh yes. The true meaning of driving a perfectly set up Boxster is at my fingertips.

Turn in: Buttery smooth

Control: took a freeway on-ramp at 100mph felt glued to the road.

Ride comfort: Sporty feel to it with much better suspension control than the stock struts/coils.

Pros: Much better turn in, supreme stability in turns, looks baddass, less suspension slop, adjustable ride height that I will not touch, spent about $2000 including parts and to get everything installed.

Cons: Tighter initial travel (but not backbreaking)

Overall am VERY pleased with the set up, and actually I believe the alignment and corner balance was the best thing to top it off. At stock height the car felt like it was riding on its tippy toes, now it drives glued to the road.

Exhaust Installed.

no Dyno results sorry.

With Top up:

Low resonance between 2200-2800 RPM. I cruise at 3000 RPM on the freeway in 6th so i'm good

Great smooth deep tone, very satisfied with the results.


With the top down, perhaps the resonance will disappear.....will keep you updated.
