Rear Adjustible track arms, I was thinking of trying to develop some of those too, I want to be able to develop these to cure the rattling issue that plagues some of us boxster owners. My goal is to have them made and sold for about $100 and no more for a set for the rear control arm track arm.

I am looking for a sound file of this exhaust.

Can someone post one or direct me to a different one besides the one already linked to this thread?

Thanks

Evan, How do you have the 02 sensors set up? Is your CEL light coming on because you don't have both o2 sensors?

I used his headers and muffler, with fabspeed test pipes great but close fittment. sounds awsome. You will probably need to save the last OE u-bends that attach to the factory exhaust. I had to heat mine out and use a mallet. I'll post pics soon on TC Echelon myspace.

Hi blinkwatt,

Thats the same exhaust from the link, to order please send payment direct through Pay-Pal. My ID is deluboz@aol.com Tracking # provided as soon shipped out.

Please keep in mind for 97-99 Boxster will required to drill new hole on the center bracket, for 00-04 Boxster is direct bolt on.

Thank you !
