Hi everyone. I bought my first Porsche a few months ago. I drove 18 hrs to Tennessee from NY to pick up my boxster s. I have put 11k very very spirited miles on it on very curvy and hilly roads. I love the rawness of it! So far i have changed the engine coolant resevoir tank which the dealer quoted me at over 3k..... I am mechanically inclined so did it myself. That was a pain! I have changed the breaks and installed spacers. I have new Goodrich G force super sports after having a few weeks with bald tires and rain.... she was sideways whenever it was clear roads ahead! Yesterday i got the engine mount changed and now have h&r sports springs to install. I got a 9 hr estimate for that install. Is it difficult to change? I am thinking if it is that long of a install i should also install new shocks. Any experience with bilstien shocks? I ultimately want to track the car but until then it is my DD.
