How to make a Boxster faster pt.1 - Exhaust, Throttle Body & Airbox Mods

[@Th-ls8se]

I am currently hunting for a Boxster and finding your channel incredibly informative - thank you. Funnily enough, Richard's Boxster is the exact model and trim I am looking for!

[@YogisGarage]

Glad I found your channel. I'm doing a 986 as my next project car. Looking to restore/mod and boost HP.

[@BurnersCars]

As always, I love that you have tested this and broke down actual numbers. Great work!

[@RoadandRacetv]

+Burner's Cars Cheers Ben. Wait for the next two episodes - the results may surprise you!

[@BurnersCars]

Excellent!

Love the video , very informative, love the deadpan delivery it’s so refreshing 👍🏼

[@RoadandRacetv]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@stephenoverstreet9898]

Very informative and methodical approach about REAL performance mods and REAL, measurable gains! Very well done, Neil!!!

[@RoadandRacetv]

+Stephen Overstreet Many thanks Stephen, so glad to hear you like my approach to these things.

One of my Favourite videos. Great to see other cars of the same marque displaying your plans. I really want to do the 996 TB on my 986S now!

[@RoadandRacetv]

+Jason Day Big thanks Jason. The 996 TB is one of the cheapest and easiest mods, you won't regret it!

[@TomsTurboGarage]

Well done as always!

[@RoadandRacetv]

+Tom's Turbo Garage Tom, so glad you liked it. I'm loving the Figgy series on your channel!

Can you ask the owner where and what the model# is for the K&N air intake kit was that he used?

[@BJK1715]

10-13 hrs to replace the airbox is crazy! Approx. how long does it take to remove the stock airbox? So, are you going to do this to yours?

[@dwarfyh32]

Watching with interest. Hopefully it will see close to 300bhp with all the mods mapped in properly

[@RoadandRacetv]

+dwarfyh32 Maybe....

[@fxlltxtsearch]

Is that a jeep wrangler? Why is it so loud in the cabin?

[@garethpeers915]

Another great video! Quite interesting as I did the throttle body mod and felt my car was running rich! Keep up the good work 👍

[@RoadandRacetv]

+Gareth Peers Cheers Gareth!

[@kieranwhoriskey7270]

Great video man. Looking forward to seeing how this all works out.

[@RoadandRacetv]

+Kieran Whoriskey Thanks Kieran. I'm working hard in the edit to get the next parts out as soon as I can!

The exhaust clamps look like something from a 1960s Ford Cortina.

[@S-BOIL_k2t2m2s2]

i learned a lot from you today.THANK YOU!

[@Fred82ndAbn]

Good video! When calculating HP gains, did you take into account the loss of hp due to the transaxle? The factory HP numbers you are comparing it to are the flywheel hp given by the factory and not the wheel horsepower like the graphs. HP gains maybe more in that case.

[@RoadandRacetv]

+Alfredo Larracuente An excellent question Alfredo. All the figures quoted are flywheel numbers. The rolling road can give both at the wheel and flywheel figures so we used flywheel to keep things simple. The flywheel figure from the rolling road is an estimate though.

[@givemeyourfish]

sports exhaust also *can* reduce weight significantly

[@steffydog]

Back here sgain

[@allenhsu869]

Thank you again for the awesome video!

[@RoadandRacetv]

+Allen Hsu Cheers Allen, glad you enjoyed it. Stay tuned for part 2!

[@kostik]

Great video! Do you plan to make some of these things on your car?

[@RoadandRacetv]

+Konstantin Thanks Konstantin. I may, I've certainly been thinking about it. My car is a Tiptronic so I'll never be able to get a final horsepower figure though. 🙁

[@radiocrash]

is the power reading listed taken from the crank or the wheels?

[@RoadandRacetv]

+radiocrash It's an estimated crank value

[@robertescalante9858]

I like it man, subbed! watched 3 of your videos so far. more to come I'm sure

[@G3BML]

Another great video, well done! Really enjoy your work. I'm looking into an IPD plenum and 82mm TB for my 996 4S

[@RoadandRacetv]

+Lewis Gorman Thanks! That's a nice mod, you should see some power gains with that.
