Yes, I know that I am reviving an old post, but I could not resist my interest.

Would a SPB exhaust fit on a 3.2L S Boxster of the same year model?

I agree about the diminishing returns of a tire that is too wide. Is an 8.8" wide tire (235/40) too much for my stock 7.5" twist wheel?

Stock Front Suspension Much Softer than Rear?

I have a 986S with the M030 Option code (on the sticker at least). It is easy to compress the front suspension by pressing down (carefully) on the nose of my car or on the floor board near the...
