Did you know that an occasional small amt of smoke is "normal" for a Boxster? The boxer engine design is prone to belching a bit of smoke when started. You don't say if the smoke is on every start up or now and then. If it smokes on every start, then the AOS is probably the culprit, but don't be alarmed by the occasional puff.
