Hi,

If you have a 2001 then you have the e-gas and not the wire throttle.

There are several revisions of the MAF for e-gas, and if you had a 2000 there would be a chance that you had the earlier one. For 2001, you have the most recent revision. This article from Pelican Parts 101 Projects for your Boxster has a breakdown and also a link to order the correct one.

If you determine that you need to replace your MAF, then this article will help you to figure out the correct one.
