LINK: Tuning for Boxster 987

Looking to upgrade uyour 987, u may wanna check this. Dunno if these are wellknown or not...but they are the first examples of 987-tuning consisting of more than just ECU + exhaust.

Re: LINK: Tuning for Boxster 987

I spoke with Roock some number of months ago. At that time they hadn't actually swapped anything into a 987 yet, but the owner was very interested in having a west coast US presence. We were entertaining the idea of doing things with my car, but then I snapped back to reality. Even with the discount he was planning on giving me, the cost would have been rather prohibitive.

And then there's that whole, "voids your warranty" thing.

I've not heard of any problems with Roock conversions, but then there aren't too many about due to the hgh costs.

360bhp in a 987 - mmmmmmmmm

I can't remember, sorry. It was a five digit number of some sort...

Thanks, Bluelines.
