Default Hello Everyone

bfutch,
I have made several posts but I realize I haven't formally introduced myself with a new post. This is my 2002 Carerra Cab. I do most of the maintenance work (brakes,plugs, oil)myself and have installed the following options: JVT headers, K&N full flow air filter, SmartTop, and recently changed my spark plugs to the new Pulstar: BE1i. I find this forum and you guys to be very helpful. I hope we can all help each other and exhange information as we enjoy our cars!

Welcome to the best forum for our cars!
Your car looks great!
Have you noticed any advantage to the new plugs?

Nice CAB...Read you installed BE1 Pulstar, thinking about doing the same. Check out the "101 Projects for Your Porsche Boxster " at http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/...bkptec_pg2.htm , geat book for DIY.
