Boxster S Stage II Upgrades....

Had a boxster S come into the shop friday evening for some upgrades, and thought you all might want to see what is involved. I put on a B&M short throw, dansk muffler, fabspeed Secondary cat bypasses, GIAC flash, and evo cold air intake.....I forgot to take a few pictures along the way, but the bulk of it is there....All very DIY in a few hours, with the exception of the flash load....

From the blog....

Hey Porschedoc - I've always wondered what exactly the stage X rating means. I've played many hours of Gran Turismo and see it referenced on the net but don't know really what it means to have a stage 1 2 3 or 4 upgrade done... other than faster car... enlighten me please.

That's right. He's loading in software from GIAC to alter the F/A mixture and other parameters to accomodate the mods.
