I'll add my 2 cents here. I had a Fabspeed Maxflo exhaust installed on my 2001 Boxster S. The upside is that it sounds great when hammering on from 4000 to the redline, and there seems to be more...

tie rod ends for 986

I've been gradually replacing the suspension control arms and links in my 2001 Boxster S. Next up is tie-rod ends. Should I do both inner and outer, or is it the outers that tend to wear?

Hi, I have a 2001 Boxster S (136,000 km) with a fairly ropey shift action. I'd like to tighten things up and I hear replacing my shifter mechanism with one from a Boxster 987 is a worthwhile swap....
