sorry if i was misunderstood. i understand the structural role the oem plate plays. i just noted that it also has air scoops build into it to direct air over the transmission, and that the boxster transmission needs all the cooling it can get. so , his system may work for a built transmission, but for the rest of us track rats we may miss the additional cooling. also, if you look, his truss system doesn't hit all the tie-in points that the oem plate does, so there may actually be some lost rigidity in some directions.
