test drove one and the handle is like dream. The engine is kind of weak for this chassic and suspenions, it can well handle 100hp+. The new wheels fill up the wheels gap nicely, H&R spring will be even better. Nice job!!

PS, is the exhaust tip an options? I remember the one I drove dosen't look like this.

thanks for the comment. The h and r's are already installed, so before them the thing looked like a 4x4!! Now it sits just perfect. With the 295's, any lower and I would be in trouble

The exhaust tip is actually a Polished 987 Boxster S tip that is flipped upside down! Turned out better than the "pig nose" that comes on it eh!

I think it is a lot of car for 60K. I mean of course a turbo or GT3 will be faster and all, but for 60 grand, it is a very well rounded car. It isnt overkill in any performance aspect, but just perfect to me.

I think adding a little boost would make it a contender.

Agreed, but i think it will change the whole character and means of what the car was built for quite honestly. They have TT Lotus Elise's that just spin and spin out there, they ruined them as track cars by adding significant power and upgrades, i just dont think the car was built to put a huge jump of power down in it and would make it less "perfected" at what it does best, similar to what my M3 was like after the stg. 2 + supercharger upgrade!
