Golonaus,
Thanks for that data point -very useful and kind of you to contribute to the facts.
May I ask which ROW re-flash you used? Was it any that I mentioned earlier in this thread?
I ask because this is a subject that can cause Boxster enthusiasts a lot of grief and expense. Having had to pay for a total engine R&r + rebuild,I need to minimize any other problems. My wife is already suggesting I find a cheaper mistress or a less expensive car!
Knowing specific,detailed solutions to the SAI issue would be helpful.

Oh and as a bonus for being so helpful :
I stumbled on this suggestion(Pedro's Garage) on how to remove the plastic tubes for the spark plug recess.Use a 1" boat drain bung.Yes, really ! I got one - FleaBay. It worked.It cost $4 !
