986S Turbo Build

About a week or 2 ago we started talking to this client. Drove the car down from quebec to our shop near baltimore, md. He is getting our modified 987 Turbo kit to fit his 986S boxster... Most of the same parts plus 987 Exhaust manifolds(oem porsche) and a 987 Throttle body(oem porsche). We have been getting a lot of calls lately about upgrading 986s and when it comes to spending money on the upgrades on older car for ~360whp vs. spending 60k for a new one with ~275whp, the turbo upgrade makes a good bit of sense.

This client is also getting upgraded brakes, our pro series sway bars, wheels and our 997 x51 clutch and flywheel package... gonna be a trick boxster when all is said and done!

The pictures.

I'm very excited to see how this project progresses. Boxsters are really a great bargain now and it's amazing that they can be picked up for roughly only about $5K more than a Miata of the same vintage.
