No third radiator on the Boxster S. It can be upgraded to that because of the hole already cut out of the bumper though. This can be easily fixed with a nice muffler on the base. Like Ian said, you should be having fun no matter what.

Not correct - all S models have the third radiator fitted as standard.......

Only tiptronic trans cars have the third radiator. My 2005 S is a 6-speed and there is no third radiator.

You have a very rare car. S models came stock with 3rd rad.
