Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well it has been a fun ride, other than blowing my 3.2L and spending 22K to put the 3.6L in there. This car and forum has been amazing, thank you guys for all the great help you have given me. The car is going to another owner on here so keeping it in the family. I am probably going to go with a 335i sedan, getting a 07 for around 29K. I might just have to play with those turbos so i get the speed back I had with my 3.6L!!!

POST 2Original post

The 3.6 is going to a good home. Already planning a trip to the Blue Ridge parkway in the spring and planning to hit Road Atlanta for the DE day this year. I can't wait to drive it!

POST 3Original post

You should do the BRBS thing if you have the time....They'd love to see that set up, as I know there's some guys with 3.4L conversions, but not sure they've seen too many 3.6L Boxsters... www.brbs.org

That's an excellent plan. I took my 901 down the Blue Ridge Parkway once. I spent a sunny late spring day right in the middle of the week rolling up and down those hills. It's definitely one of those things you have to do at least once. My next plan is to get the 986 or the 901 out to California and drive up through wine country. Course I have to get them both working first!
