Official 981 Boxster announcement & discussion thread (merged topics)
Jan 11, 2012 - 4:30 PM - by 964c2
Porsche Unveils 981 Boxster January 11, 2012—Porsche has released the first photos of and information about the long awaited next generation Boxster. Although the North American Auto Show in Detroit is currently taking place, Porsche chose to slip the news in about the Boxster after unveilings at the show. Insiders point to a fear that with the 911 Cabriolet on display for the first time in the US in Detroit that Porsche did not want the Boxster, an arguably better looking convertible, stealing the show from its higher-priced sibling. The new 981 is touted as the most comprehensive generational change in the mid-engined roadster’s history, the Type 981 Boxster has a longer wheelbase and a wider track, is lighter, more fuel efficient and has electromechanical steering just like the new 991.

In addition to a new lightweight body, the Boxster chassis is said to have been completely... [Read More]

TPC Racing 600HP 3.7L Cayman Turbo: Can you handle the Power?
Dec 23, 2011 - 9:14 AM - by Harris@TPCRacing
TPC Racing, we just finished up a record shattering 3.7L Cayman Turbo! When we finished putting the 3.4L Cayman Turbo back together that was originally in it, the owner of the car wanted more power and something that would stand up to constant abuse. After sitting down and discussing the options, the 3.7L was the way to go in order to take this project to the next level.

To do this, we had to tear down the engine to machine the block to transform it from a 3.4L to 3.7L. After machining the sleeves, the block was ready for TPC Racing custom forged pistons and connecting rods. By doing this, we were able to drop the compression from 11:1 to 10:1. This improves the torque in a huge way, making for huge torque while the boost comes in very smooth.

The owners initial goal was to reach 500 wheel horsepower. The first run we made without modifying the boost, we were able to put down 470WHP. Mike knew right then that... [Read More]

Cayman LED Spars with Radiator Guards (fits 2006-2008) Group Buy
Dec 05, 2011 - 12:53 AM - by josephsdesimone
Eliminate your 2006-2008 Cayman's circa 1995 fog-lights while updating it beyond the Gen 2! Manufactured in the U.S.A. of polypropylene T20 (just like Porsche OEM), these Cayman LED Spars with Radiator Guards absorb impacts and with 100% color impregnation chipping is eliminated. The wide-angle ultra-high-output LEDs on these Spars create greater visibility and yield over 10 years of service. Extra strong polypropylene mesh protects your A/C condensers and radiators while adding a touch of the Porsche GT3 aesthetic.

This is truly a plug-n-play installation. Anyone capable of replacing a fog-light bulb can install these LED Spars. The water resistant installation is easily reversed to return to the stock configuration.

The Cayman LED Spars with Radiator Guards will ship to you as a pair (driver and passenger side) complete with easy to follow step-by-step instructions and all of the necessary supplies to produce a professional... [Read More]
