What he really needs is a 50trim a FMIC a set of 660cc, afc and full 3 inch exhaust with external wg. Go from 200hp to 350whp for under 4k lol. If only it were that easy on the Boxster.

Honestly tho the gains on the boxster are small. And coming from a DSM background I hear you on the do it all or nothing thing, but you just can't double the HP of these cars like were used to.

I did an intake on my car and felt a small gain, better throttle response and it sounds hella awesome. Thats ok, next I'll do headers and cats, then a muffler (or reverse that whatever) and I know the gains will be small. I enjoy to do things one at a time, then you really know what made the power and what didn't. I just suggest that as it's also a good learning path for others as well to do things one by one and do it them selves in their garage. No better way to learn your car then to rip it appart.

I'm not a big NA fan, if it doesn't have 500ci or a huge turbo, really I'm not interetsted, however I love the Boxster it's a great car, so whatever I can do to make it just that little bit better is ok with me. Even if its $3000 later for only 15hp, thats life.
