Local Shop that knows Boxster Engines

Postby rshon on Mon Jul 17, 2006 12:03 am

Which local shop has the most experience working on Boxsters with aftermarket intakes, exhausts, ECU programming, etc.? I need a shop that really understands the sensors and mixture maps on these engines.

Only two real tuners in the SD area that have injection knowledge and one of them probably doesnt have the software needed to make changes to your fuel and ignition tables.

Contact Derek at http://www.performanceefi.com/ He knows (Via his dyno) exactly what your car will need with the mods you have. He uses a real chassi dyno that allows him to load the car in any RPM range for as long as he wants/needs. Unlike a Dynojet that calculates: "how fast can you accelerate this given wieght" with no oppurtunity to tune anything but top end.

Thanks for the input. I have dealt with my problems (faulty MAF) for now, so hopefully I won't be sputtering at the start house next month... 8)

I dont understand why Bosch/Porsche doesnt come out with a bullet proof MAF sensor. It appears that 25% of them are junk out of the box. I guess if you make them bullet proof you wont get any return customers Image
