But do you stop at the IMS or go on and RMS and/or clutch? Turn it into a cpo or go on for a full rebuild or even a bigger engine?
The costs are so different and is there a right answer?
I don't think so, only the answer you come up with understanding your risk tolerance, budget, other priorities, etc.
Tough to sell this season...over 1000 used Boxsters for sale nationally (cars.com count).

RMS is about a $30 part -- no significant extra labor since
it sits about 5" above IMS.
Clutch will probably run about $500 -- a little more labor
but not much. The majority of the labor is same as getting to the IMS.
The RMS is a no brainer, and the clutch is pretty close to that.
Water Pumps are another weak spot IMHO. Part runs $225 plus gasket,
probably 1 hr of labor tops.
