I've been watching your build and our cars will look very similar. I'm almost thinking about copying your spoiler idea. I want to do something too but haven't figured out what yet. I really wish someone would build a ducktail for the 986 boxster. I think that's the look I'm really after.


Relocated the battery today. I've seen a lot of 996 and 986 guys move their battery for better weight distribution. Most I've seen move it to the passenger floor because that's the best place if you're trying to shift weight to the best spot. That won't work for cars that still carry a passenger. The other option is to bring it down into the frunk. I still need to carry a spare, so I put it in the best location that the tray would sit flat. I used a preexisting ground location. It's a little bit smaller and I have some ideas to help create more surface area for the connection if problems arise.
