Finally Got The Boxster Out!!!!!!

Well, after a 6-month winter hibernation, I got my car out yesterday! It was about one-month longer than planned.

Everything went great! Thanks Jim (MNBoxster), for the excellent winter storage tips. The car roared to life with the first key turn (I used the batter maintainer). It gave off the very smallest puff of smoke and not a single abnormal engine sound. It sounded like a pre-warmed engine.

I took it for a nice 2 hour drive.

Today, I am at Porsche Motor Werks for the install of the Porsche Sport Exhaust (PSE).

Boy, it takes a long time to drain about 25 pounds of air pressure! Winter storage is at 58-60 pounds. I had absolutely NO flat spotting. I parked on hard rubber pads (like you would see in a health club weight room), move the car about 12 inches every month, and run a full nitrogen fill.

:dance:
