the screws are there to hold it in place while you do the bolts some people ignore this step the bolts hold it on without the screw just fine painted parts are available at www.bumperplugs.com installation details should be there too, or just ask eric (plug guy) no affiliation, just a happy customer! aloha steve

you may have to search the archives for the answer you seek http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?a...ighlite=%2Bm030 did you try the other boards i mentioned? aloha steve

you'll still get a lot of benefit just from doing the sways. optionally, you can do the complete U.W. M030; it doesn't change the ride height. I'm reviving this thread because there are some very knowledgeable people (Insite in particular) on here and that's what I need right now. I have a 2004 base Boxster w/o M030 and I auto-x with the SCCA in A Stock. I am fairly competitive with the A Stock leaders in their S2000's but need another .5 to .8 seconds to beat them. Obviously, in AS I am not allowed to install the RoW M030 because it bumps me out of Stock class. What parts and part #s do I need to install the US M030? I am allowed to change front sway bar to anything but must keep the rear sway bar and springs US M030 or non-M030 (no mixing and matching between the different suspension packages allowed). I can change shocks, too as long as ride height does not change. I have read about the amazing differences between the non-M030 and RoW M030 on a 986S but how much of a difference between the non-M030 and US M030 on a base Boxster? I can only get -.7 camber on the front, I assume that will not change or is there some Stock legal way to get more? I want to run with the S2000's at the SCCA Nats this year and am looking for help. somebody will be along soon with some advice, but a starting place would be to read these sites http://www.boxcar-racing.com/forum/ http://www.boxsterspecracing.org/forums/ http://www.boxsterspec.com/ aloha steve

not sure what the stated tire pressures are on the 987, but on the 986, i run 32/34 cold (no autocrossing) the recommended tire pressures are something like 32/36 or 32/38 the larger differential adds understeer lowering the differential makes the car more neutral i do know the 987 has higher profile tires than the 986, but the basic theory should hold true aloha steve
