Yes, Guards Red. It looks great in person after a detail, the pictures are a little washed out.

I went through a similar process with my 2.5L Boxster and got the street car weight down to about 2800 wet. That made a noticeable difference in performance of the car. Light weight seats and an AGM/LI Iron battery will probably shave another 100lbs.

Thanks, both are on my to-do list. I would love a nice set of more aggressive seats like a Recaro SRD.

Entire car build is documented here (thanks for the shoutout Chuck!): http://986forum.com/forums/boxster-racing-forum/46070-spec-boxster-build.html
Also, the muffler you installed will give you a few extra horsepower at the high rpm (dyno results are in the link above) and removing the cat's and installing test pipes will definitely increase the SOUND LEVEL. I wear earplugs.  |
Great info there, thanks!
