Sadly, having moved to Bahrain at the beggining of the year I have the dilemma of my wonderful cayman S garaged and un-used in the UK since November 2007. The time has come to admit that the little fella has to go, just as I got the performance of the car perfected! Damn it! Anyway, if any of you guys know anyone that is interested in my Red Devil please let me know. Details below:
Cayman S. August 2006. 10,000 miles. Guards Red, black leather interior.
OEM spec: sports seats (heated), cruise control, climate control, guards red belts, 18" cayman s wheels (matt black), xenon lights, rear wiper, roof rack, stainless steel exhaust pipes, short shifter, sports steering wheel, sound package plus, cd changer, tracker. (Current new price for this car: 50,500GBP)
Modified spec: track bias geometry set up, pilot sport cup tyres, pagid blue brake pads, stainless steel brake hoses, high performance brake fluid, de-snork, EVO-m airbox/filter, revo bespoke re-map, fabspeed exhaust headers, quaife LSD, Manti-sport rear stress bar, H&R springs, H&R adjustable anti-roll bars, Carbon GT3 race seats, harnesses, harness bar. GT3 front grille, black side grilles, black bumper spears, IPD plenum, (Cost of mods: >10k..)
Spares: all orginal parts (seats, diff etc). Extra set of Porsche wheels, original Pilot sport tyres + spare set of track tyres.
This awesome track car has been meticulously modified and maintained by Parr Autosport in Gatwick. Perfect example.
The plenum is the piece that goes between the Cayman throttle body and the intake runners. The factory piece is a long black plastic tube with a divider down the middle. There are aftermarket replacements which are designed to allow the air to flow easier/faster into the engine and increase horsepower and torque.
LSD - Limited Slip Differential
A limited slip differential (LSD) is a modified or derived type of differential gear arrangement that allows for some difference in rotational velocity of the output shafts, but does not allow the difference in speed to increase beyond a preset amount. In an automobile, such limited slip differentials are sometimes used in place of a standard differential, where they convey certain dynamic advantages, at the expense of greater complexity.
The main advantage of a limited slip differential is found by considering the case of a standard (or "open") differential where one wheel has no contact with the ground at all. In such a case, the contacting wheel will remain stationary, and the non-contacting wheel will rotate freely– the torque transmitted will be equal at both wheels, but will not exceed the threshold of torque needed to move the vehicle, thus the vehicle will remain stationary. In everyday use on typical roads, such a situation is very unlikely, and so a normal differential suffices. For more demanding use however, such as driving off-road, or for high performance vehicles, such a state of affairs is undesirable, and the LSD can be employed to deal with it. By limiting the velocity difference between a pair of driven wheels, useful torque can be transmitted as long as there is some friction available on at least one of the wheels.

Good luck with the sale, If your moving out to Bahrain you should get a CS out there.
Can i ask what differance you got with the Revo re-map?
Thanks
J
Terry (bless his soul), got lots of difference from the Revo, as Tess and I did with the Softronic........... But we did a lot on the mechanicals............
Porsche has held back the Cayman - come down to Anglesey 20th June and see the Cayman really fly.................... (your black stripes count for nothing)
Softronic
SOFTRONIC produces DME programming and hardware to suit your companies specifications. Our current software suite is a complex matched set of programs housed in a Flash Manager and Flash Client. This software is matched with two cables, an End User and Master Cable. The SOFTRONIC proprietary flashing solution outperforms all other combinations in speed and accuracy including the factory Porsche equipment.

Anyone going to Spa on 21st and 22nd July? This is likely to be my very last outing in the Red Devil this year (on the assumption it gets sold afterwards!). It would be good to see fellow Caymans out there....

SO they make you go faster? You'll have to prove that one some time!!!!!
I hope you realised my comment was in jest.
I am not a track competitor, i have very limited experience and due to my 7day workload very little time to learn. Would be excellent im sure.
