I was a bit skeptical at first since the numbers were higher than I expected, but the others in the group said their results were what they expected.

My mods are as follows:

Evo air intake
2nd cat bypass pipes
Borla muffler

I plan to do the powerchip in the next few weeks and I'll dyno again.
Cool Stuff and Nasty mods,
I have sched, HR springs, evo air intake and the german ebay modified exhaust,LOL I have a credit from giac from my cayenne turbo flash, so I probably be doing that too.. the ecu flash will definitely help especially you already have the intake and exhaust..you'll see big diffetence .. good luck man!!
with these NA engines that's all you could do unless youre thinking of EVOM supercharger

Hi,

I'm confused, all this time I thought you were doing the Mods yourself, but I see now that you're paying someone else to do it. That can really get expensive. My personal preference is to have someone else touch my car as little as possible, not just from the $$ standpoint, but then I'm sure it's done right. To each his own...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

I installed the EVO intake myself and to be honest it was all quite easy. The only part that I had a problem with is getting the stock air box out. That bolt under the car was hard to get to, eventually I found an easy way to get at it and the rest was cake. I could re-do that install now in two hours start to finish with clean hands and 1 beer consumed.

Other thing is even if the intake is not made for your car it will fit. I bought Clubheads intake and he has a Boxster S. I had to buy some extra silicone to make up a shortfall in the piping of about 4" and thats it, no big deal really. It still fits fine, just has to do some minor adjustments...

I've been reading about this exhaust which claims to make the Boxster sound like a 996. How true is that? I'm very tempted to get one of these, just that they don't seem to have one for the S readily available.

Great, let me know the outcome when you've got yours on the car. I'm currently running the Dansk aftermarket muffler and before that, the Tequipment Sports Muffler. I missed the unique sound of the Tequipment but the like the louder exhaust from the Dansk. If only both the sound and volume can be combined.... which is what this muffler seem to be offering.

Are you talking about the 996 on the fabspeed site because a stock 996 sounds kindof...I don't know...not too impressive and less aggressive than a 986.

Nope. I'm talking about those 996 which comes with the Tequipment Sports Exhaust system...

So Nastyboxster: did you ever buy the Powerchip and test the gains again?

This thread just died
