Grab a copy of the PET (Boxster Parts Book PDF) from here:

http://www.porsche.com/all/media/pdf/originalparts/usa/986_USA_KATALOG.pdf

Towards the end of the PDF are the MXXX codes - you can match them up to what's listed on the sticker under the front hood, then as you are skimming through the sections of the PET, the rightmost column will tell you which parts go with which option code (when there is a difference).

Congrats on getting a great car! Please post some pictures when you get a chance...
