How about $245 for the official, Porsche badged relay (more than the cost of a good, new 8000 BTU window a/c unit)! I know that Porsche, Ducati, etc. charge ridiculously high prices for parts because they can (people are willing to pay to play), but when I see things like that, I still get a feeling of disgust over the criminality of it.
I was thinking of you when I made this thread and was hoping you'd chime in (forum leg humping and butt snorkling) - I really like your idea and may copy it.
Really weird that the yellow relay has become known as the "overboost relay" - I'm pretty sure that it is even labeled "boost, or air pressure relay" in the PET - strange stuff.
