4. Aftermarket radiators to improve cooling yet no intake ducting for them and still using the puny base cooling tubes.
5. Removes the factory ABS and also keeps the three channel brake line system
6. Dirty oil pan. That thing looked like it came straight out of a donor car without getting cleaned
7. 526hp claim out of a 2.7 M96
8. 526hp through a 5 speed
9. It looks like it was painted in sections

I support anyone trying to elevate the boxster platform but this build is questionable to me.

I think 526hp would be obtainable, it is a twin turbo. He mentioned that they did do some internal engine work, which would have been necassary to keep the engine together with that much boost.

I think it was tcp engineering offers a low boost turbo kit, for boxster that adds 100hp at like 5 or 6 psi. This guy said they are running 26psi, at full boost. If nothing is a great conversation car. I really didnt like the builder much, but would like to see the car in person.

I agree with stroked that line lock button on a riad course not in a great spot.

526hp might be obtainable the second before the case explodes or the crank disintegrates. That's assuming he has upgraded rods and pistons. I wish the interviewer had asked more about the engine. I'm guessing that might have cut into his selfie time though.

Well we can see it didnt blow apart!!

But the BOV would be annoying as hell. But thing bothers me they didnt post speed and lap info, or i just missed it.
