Tboyer,
I don't have a Boxster yet, but hope to by next spring.
2 water pumps in 2 boxsters?... maybe u might want to consider using a different coolant than the 'magic' porsche stuff.....
In the motorcycle world, we look for 'silicate-free' coolant, as that is supposed to be easier on the seals in the pumps. Me personally, I use the Dexcool compatible stuff.
I've replaced the water pumps (preventatively in our vehicles at around 100-120,000km range.)
