Who has an engine taken apart, or has access to parts and can measure them? I'm very interested as to whether my speculation about the 78 mm stroke engines sharing crank and rods is correct.

Pretty cool site Eric, I haven’t blown up this motor… yet, so I can't rip it apart & measure the stroke my self.
Be interesting to see if the 78's do share a crank and rods, would open the door to some interesting mods. I have "heard tell" though, that the Boxster's case is of a weaker design and maybe even metallurgically different.
I’m not quite psyched to rip my motor out and apart. I just picked up a real deal on an h20 Injection setup. From what I’ve read, they really do quite a job. So I don’t think I’m going to have a compelling (read necessary) reason to rip it apart to soon.
I’d really like to get a tired, cheap, 2,5…well forget that… 3.2-3.6 to pull apart and monkey around with it since there’s obviously a source for internals (like those you cited) make a swap when convenient. I wonder what practically & realistically can be done with them. (I’m really getting quite tired of “hp gain claim, game”)
