And the thread locker doing it's job. :p

Loctite is my go-to stuff, but I also rarely use thread locker *shrug*

Rice request: Facelift 986 with GT3 sideskirts and stock bumpers..

Basically my stock mudflaps are done and instead of looking to waste money replacing them, i'm looking to upgrade them and trying to decide of these skirts will look tacky with stock bumpers.

I'm guessing the bolt head doesn't physically fit in the holes, i've had "tuner" wheels, they use very small headed lug nuts/bolts. I started just buying "OEM+" wheels in recent years because I just...

Hate to say it, but I doubt any of this will matter to the company.

The best suggest is to work with ECS about returning their lugs and having them ship you tuner lugs. ECS is a reputable company.

Sits a lot like the Z3 I had about 6 years ago. Looked better after I got flatcaps, but never got pics afterwards. The stretched tire thing is mostly just VWs here, other car communities frown upon...

They're 18s, just throwing in that I think 19s are the max that look good on these cars.

Different strokes for different folks and maybe i'm a tad trendy coming from VWs. I always run fat stretched tires in the rear, I like the illusion it adds of making the back look wider. I couldn't...

11s will fit with 275 tires, but the offset has to be PERFECT.

I'm running et35 (rims are et45 with 10mm spacers) with 265 tires and have just enough room with stock fenders to pull off 275s, but...

Exhaust theory says a fully wrapped exhaust would keep the exhaust molecules "excited" and speed up flow.

Actual gains...neglegable. I personally don't wrap exhaust because it makes the metal...

So yeah, sales pitch. I'll stick with stock exhaust because I like the way it looks, not worth changing it for basically 10hp max.

Did find this eventually on Google, I guess close enough to get an idea of how these motors react to full (i'm assuming) exhaust...11hp.

Dyno results of full exhaust vs stock?

Saw a video a while back on YouTube that was basically a glorified sales ad with no actual numbers or anything to back up their statements. There was a lot of points made about areas where the stock...

And the comment I was talking about was deleted, probably why it seems like I'm a bigger ass than I really am.

Rear spoiler ideas?

The back of the Boxster IMO is kind of lacking, looking for something to kind of beef it up and thinking a spoiler could help...but many of the results on Google were disgusting.

It's more the front i'm worried about, 265 is 10mm more narrow on each side of the wheel than a 285...so your 47 offset would be like a 37 offset with my tire choice.
