I believe you recall incorrectly. This is the layout for the transmission cooling system as used on the Boxster Tiptronics. All of the lines in the diagram are coolant or vacuum lines, none carry transmission fluid, making it impossible to connect a true pressure flushing system to the Tip and push out the old fluid with the car assembled (you can barely even see the cooler on the car, much less get at it to connect anything, and there are no external pressure ports on the gear box) :
Over the years, several companies have claimed to have developed a pressure flushing system, all of which turned out to actually be exchange systems, which mixed the old and new fluids during the process, making it inefficient.
