The only thing to really boost power and keep with OEM porsche parts is the X51 powerkit which can run around 15k for parts and install.

You can also supercharge the car, which will probably reduce reliability in the long run but can eventually be removed.
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.

So finally i pulled the trigger on a 2004 c4s. i'd like to put a few mods to boost up the performance, but still want to keep as original as possible. what would you guys out there recommend? and how much do they roughly cost? thanks for your input.

You can also supercharge the car, which will probably reduce reliability in the long run but can eventually be removed. (make sure you have a mod friendly dealer - as this may void your warranty in terms of engine related issues).
The only other thing to do is to upgrade to a Turbo...
John - Welcome to Rennlist and Congrats on getting a nice looking C4S... oh wait.... I thought you posted some pics... but you didn't... well then, never mind about the "nice looking C4S" comment.

John, again welcome to Rennlist.
The June 10th show is to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the PCA Reisentoter Region. Just Porsche at this gathering, I believe. I'm unaware of a September show, but if anyone knows details, please post them.
Congratualions and welcome to the group!!
My suggestion is to invest in DE first(PCA Driver's Education). Spend on your skills first before material mods. I found out that the car has way more to offer than my talents can utilized.
