I have the Gtech and ran 0-60 times, but I can't find a road long and safe enough to test 1/4 times. I plan to add some mods to the car and that's why I'm measuring the times. So far, I have the air intake and short shifter. I made 5-6 runs and my best time was 5.48, avg about 5.7. I can only achieve the results if I shift at close to/at redline. I plan to do the superchip or GIAC and the 2nd cat bypass. My goal is to get close to 280hp and cut 1/2 second off 0-60. This would be at par with a 3.4 996.

Total cost for the chip and bypass $1500.

13.5 @ 106 was done last week at the track (with a 1.9 60' and missing the shift to 3rd gear the first attempt).

I am running through the data logging and I estimate that delay cost 3/10's, so a low 13 second run will probably happen next time out.

As driven to the track, not even tire pressure changes or a burnout. Full weight car with the 3.4L.

in western north carolina the average quarter mile has about 20 hairpin turns so our top speed is around 60. However, the boxster does it better than most.

1.9 to 60ft is pretty good!
