Question, does anyone know ( or know where I can find ) the shift points for a 99 Boxster ?

Example ( fake numbers ) :

1st Gear : redlines at 30 mph
2nd Gear : redlines at 60 mph
3rd gear : redlines at 90 mph
4th gear : redlines at 120 mph
5th gear : redlines at 150 mph

Thanks !

If you're asking about max acceleration rpm, download the spreadsheet and put in the correct information. It will tell you where to shift. The torque curve and gear ratios have been conveniently provided in your owner's manual. I've deducted 14% of the torque at the wheels for driveline losses in the calculation so you don't need to account for that.
