Send a message via AIM to blinkwatt
You can go to ************************************************************ or ****************************************.com and order both of their catalogs,which are free. I wish Suncoast had a catalog but you have to go to their website for their products.

Add Mid America Motorworks (formerly Tweeks) @ 800-500-1500 or www.mamotorworks.com

Always good to have several catalogs to price competitively.

I work at Mid-America Motorworks in sales. If anybody sees something we carry ask for me and I will match or beat any of our competitors.

Depends on what you are looking for.
If it's dress-up stuff, and things that you bolt onto the engine (exhaust systems, spiffy air filter kits, etc) any of the mentioned outfits will do the trick.
If it's hard-core racer parts, pistons, camshafts, etc., you are out of luck. There is little or nothing available.
Maybe in a few years, after all of the warranties are expired on the early cars, and they are cheap enough that people can start hacking them up without too much damage to their wallet, we will see some of those things hit the market.
Further, it is my understanding that Porsche does not sell internal engine parts for the Boxster. If your motor is hors d'combat, they will sell you a replacement engine, but not the parts to fix the one you have. Maybe someone can confirm this one way or the other, but that is what I have heard.

Get a membership to the PCA. Panorama magazine has plenty of ads for mail order and internet companies and many of them offer discounts to PCA members. http://www.pca.org

Excellence magazine has a ton of them too. http://www.excellence-mag.com/
