Finally heard the music

For the first time this AM...going around a curve at about 60 and it was in 3rd, revs were about 6000..what a sound! This is one fine machine for 16 years old and 126,000 miles. The coughing I've been having is going away since I've been really driving more and rowing thru the gears while keeping the revs up there.
I still want to clean the MAF and throttle body this weekend. Probably hasn't been touched in quite awhile.

What were you driving b/c in a Boxster you should have been well into 80+MPH with that combo?

Glad she's running better and definitely keep the revs up!

maybe it was approaching 80mph...I was coming out of the turn (off ramp) and punched it!
