i hate the tail lights too but he didnt like the stock ones and they were all he could find....same with the 996 conversion body kit...and yes he has more money than brains...but he also owns a few radio stations......so i do what he wants....i just havent ever worked on a car with a dry sump setup and was looking for help here.so how is the hb in those pics rice?guess u cant see that its stock outside with del sol wheels and lowered....but it has a built turbo d16z6......guess u couldnt see the front mount.....or how about my eclipse which isnt in the pics....looks stock outside but its not!!!!u would probably say my drag car is rice too because of the 1 piece fiberglass front end.....

05 boxster S convertible , MSRP: $43,800-53,100 / Invoice: $38,172-46,314

Like i said, he got money but don't have the brains. Spend 40k+ then want the car to actually be FAST instead of just look it so thats another 5-15k for a custom twin/single turbo kit. More waisted money. Add the ghetto rims and other misc rice stuff and your lookin at $65k+

i'd Rather a 2006 Nissan 350Z - $34,350 msrp ( twin turbo kit by greddy $5-6k ) and save the extra 25k

The porchse label is just not worth 25k, but thats just me.

And if your comin on here to ask about twin turboin a boxster , wouldn't you want to take pictures of the motor? I could be wrong tho

If he's got enouph money to play around with porsche like that, why don't you tell him to buy a turbo porsche that PORSCHE made. Ya know they do make turbo porsches from the factory ....if your going to spend that kind of money, BUY the car you want, don't try to build one.

Aren't all 911's rear engine? How the flying ---- did you fit an SBC in there? Do you mean 944 or 924 or something?

As far as boosting the boxster goes...those things are slow as ----. They're not for anything but impressing people who don't know whats under the hood. That said check out www.imagineauto.com they might be able to help you with ECU software or something.

Anyway...the car looks like garbage, which ruins the whole Boxster idea.

And I definately agree with the guy about the GT2. For 65k or so why not just buy a 911? Sure you might get a base model but damn, thats better than a Boxster IMO.

Have you even seen the engine bay? Oh yeah, thats right, THERE IS NO GODDAMNED HOOD! The only access to the engine is from below. Let someone else deal with that abortion.

Since everyone else basically bashed the idea, here is some helpful advice. Money is not an option so why not get a pre-fabbed kit and bolt it on?
