Any chance you can record a before and after sound clip to hear the PSE difference?

Sorry, Z.....I am just not that tech savvy. I am hoping at least one of the Chicago guys can make a recording of the "after" and post it for us to hear.

Alright Bill!!!! Mine will be "woken up" this weekend. I can't wait to see how it looks (GT3 bumper and skirts) with the wheels on the car and off the floor jacks!

I'll take some pics. I hope mine starts as easy as yours...I also have the maintainer.

Hi,

@bmus - Congrats! I've started mine (1st time - no issues), but am in the middle of some pre-season maintenance chores (garage finally warmed enough).

The Car is on Jackstands and I've pulled the Wheels (18" Turbo Twists) and detailed them, including the backside (unbelievable amount of Brake Dust) and gave 'em a couple good coats of Wheel Wax.

Removed all 4 Calipers, diassembled them, cleaned them up, and this afternoon will be painting them Red. Hydraulic System is drained and will be flushing and bleeding when I reinstall the calipers w/ ATE Super Blue - Typ200 (Gold) in there now. Also doing new Brake Pads. The current ones are about 2/3 gone, but I already have the pads, so I decided to do it early, rather than have to disassemble everything next year.

Finally, have the entire underside opened up, replaced Fuel Filter, removed Sway Bar and Diagonals so I can pull the Tiptronic Pan, replace the Filter, Gasket and Fluid - it's been leaking and I want to clean everything up make sure it's filled to the proper level (which I had no way of knowing with a leak).

So, while it will be sunny and '80's this weekend, I'll be under the Car hinding from the UV. Looks like everything will be done for next weekend though...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

AHHA!!!! MNBoxster has finally made a spelling error on this spell check-less feature forum.
What's next Perfectlap spelling words right?!
