@Sideways G If you can stretch, go for the S, although these are hard to find.

[@DC5Brandon]

@Sideways G ...although base is good if you need the extra cash to go turbo, but these are very expensive to modify compared to the RSX.

[@DC5Brandon]

@Sideways G Good question. I know the 987.1 and it's variants are port injection. Don't know about 987.2 base. I think all Caymans and Boxsters after 2009 are DI. The DI cars are harder to tune and require valve cleaning after high mileage (more-so if you're using cheap oil). Other than that I think DI is good for some extra power from the factory. From what I hear these can easily do 400-500 HP, like the K motors, but I would assume this is using a well maintained engine with low over-revs and a professional install..

[@JonHop1]

500 is a crap ton on this chassis.. I had to turn mine back down to 400. 500 is starting to get into the realm where the car is incredibly hard to grab traction even with good tires.. If so, I'd run Hondata Traction Control and switch up to the 5-speed, or get longer gears. I hate running super sticky tires on the street too. If its not a daily or a car you will driving on the street much you will be fine... Also 400whp is perfect cuz you can get away with using a mild clutch and keep it very daily-friendly. Im using the full face FX400. Mine made 411whp and 320tq(k24).. Clutch is slightly firm but very driveable and holds the power great.
