North Texas Boxster Enthusiasts in DFW get together!
It started with two guys in a garage talking about how best to improve their Porsche Boxsters.
We got together to spin a few wrenches and tell a couple tales of our drives. When, all of a sudden something magical happened, we got an idea that there were more people like this in the Dallas/FtWorth metroplex and beyond, that may benefit from getting together and sharing ideas. Our group started with KennyBoxster (Kenny) & Homeboy981 (Mark)
Here are some pics from the last "meeting" of the North texas Boxster Enthusiasts:
Here is Kenny after we got BOTH cars ready to be 'serviced'
Mark is giving 'thumbs up' after installing a Stage 1 Cold Air Intake
BOTH cars back to back when the work began
Kenny's Throttle Body assembly and other parts lying around - they don't do anyone any good unless they are installed on the car!
Kenny's before engine cleaning shot
Kenny's after TB cleaning
Kenny is giving his approval AFTER he SEES IMPROVEMENT in ACCELERATION
Our first meeting was about how to properly clean a Throttle Body. Since Mark drives down country roads to buy homes, and Kenny has not yet cleaned his. this was the perfect opportunity for our club to be born.
Here in DFW we have a range of "wrench twirling abilities", Kenny has done his clutch. We both replaced out engine mounts, installed Short Shift Kits together, put on Cat Deletes…and then realized there would be others interested in this too. We already range in age from 18 to 50 something. Our repair experience varies as well. So don't think you need knowledge…just the Pcar and we'll supply the rest!
After this meeting we got the idea that, with a bunch of active members, we could get discounts on aftermarket goodies for our members and show them how to properly install it on the vehicle.
Thanks for watching….see the REAL THING THIS WEEKEND!!
From the last meeting we decided to "expand the fan base" and have a little get together with more folks. There is NO COST. We will be doing repairs and you are free to watch AND IF YOU KNOW THE PROCEDURE…feel free to lend advice. On top of that we will have BBQ grilled hamburgers and "award-winning" french fries!
So if you are in DFW on Saturday, November 10th, 2012, be here for our get together.
