Hi! I have recently installed the techno torque on my 99 Boxster 2.5. Also installed a throttle body from a 99 996, and a high flow intake tube from the filter box. When driving everything seems fine. The car pulls strong. Good throttle response, but I experience an odd problem. When idling cold the RPM is about 900 now, and around 1100 and stable when it has reached working temp.Has checked forby Rundtinden - Main Forum
