new member!

[sam c.]

As a new member, i just wanted to take a second to introduce myself. My name is Sam and I bought my first boxster in the spring of last year. I own a shop that builds primarily boosted Japanese tuners so I'd like to believe I know a thing or two about cars though I certainly learn new things on an almost daily basis. Anyway, the boxster is a base 2.5, '99 that's wearing 18's and decently meaty hankooks. I'm currently in the process of installing an Aasco aluminum flywheel, Spec stage II clutch, IMS bearing, CAI intake, plugs, underdrive pulley, new idler pulleys, rear speakers, etc to get it ready for this spring. I have a few other items I'd like to try (AOS delete) as a future project but am just focusing on finishing up what I have in progress right now.

I'm currently living in Idaho Falls and doing nuclear engineering type stuff for the DOE in my spare time (aka, when I'm not in the shop with the cars). I've been lurking here since last year but thought I should take the time to make it official and say Hi.
