I have all 3 bars (made my own lower bar) and didn't notice any difference when I added them. I have a front bar on my Rx-7 and immediately noticed an improvement in steering response so I think I am reasonably sensitive. The Boxster is really stiff to begin with.
Others say they can tell there's a stiffness increase.

We essentially have the same front end as a 996 Cup car and they don't need/use strut tower bars. Probably not much gain there. The Pedro bar probably addresses the area of greatest flex and the most benefit. I used a lower stress bar for a while and thought it made a difference. I had to remove it for Time Trial competition as it is not legal in my class. The car still feels pretty solid.
