Well worth the money!
If you own a Porsche Boxster, you should get Wayne Dempsey's well-illustrated book,"101 Projects for your Porsche Boxster" If you are an inveterate tinkerer like me, it will give you ideas for mods/improvements, ranging from a proper car washing to internal engine mods.
I love all wheeled vehicles(bicycles, motorcycles, cars, trucks and none are completely stock. My mods are almost always for functional improvements. I do NOT subscribe to the notion "If it ain't broken don't fix it" I'll admit that occasionally this comes back to bite me in the posterior, but overwhelmingly it has led to to a nicer driving/riding experience.
My first mod to my 2002 Boxster S will be an Ebay stainless steel muffler. The one I purchased is fully polished and is gorgeous. It will be a bit of a shame to hide the majority of it under the car. I already have a short list of other improvements that this books shows. I don't think you will be disappointed if you buy the book.Read full review...
Great detailed Information
I love this book. Well organized and thought out. Super detailed. Book states it is meant to be used with the bently manual. This is fantastic buy at around $25 same price available on line for new but simple to order on eBay.Read full review...

Extra parts required
This manual was helpful, however it would have been more helpful to know that before I purchased this item it was designed to be used with an additional Bentley Publishers service manual which cost about 3 times as much as this book.Read full review...

Overall disappointing - mostly superficial - some useful information
Purchased to support engine re-furb but unfortunately good photos and thick paper stock don't overcome the overall disappointing, mostly superficial, information provided - most of which can be gotten from other sources. OK for supplemental reading but don't pay retail because it's not worth it.Read full review...

Summary of certain mods, repairs, troubleshooting - great learning curve for Boxster owners.
Very decent compendium of knowledge.
Some projects changed (due to different years), but overall nice.
Perfect
As a longtime Alfa owner I looked to this book to direct me towards the "secrets" of owning and maintaining a Porsche Boxster. It did not disappoint. I have already done five or six of the projects listed and looking forward to more.Read full review...

A MUST have
This is the best guide to working on your 986 Boxster out there. Consider it an asset to anyone wanting to do some repairs themselves.
