Great advice everyone. I kind of thought it was a no-brainer to bring the Boxster back home where she belongs.

I wasn't aware of the Krause extension bar, but will look into it.
Definitely all fluids will be changed on this one. For brake fluid, I've used ATE but currently run Motul 600 in my M3. Both are great fluids. I run Hawk HT10s, but that's way too aggressive a pad for this. Any suggestions on a milder track pad that works well on the early 986s?

Thanks for the tire suggestions, too. I'll need to do more research to decide if I change the sizing from stock or not, but I'll definitely have my alignment shop put it on the rack and dial in as much camber as possible.

CG Lock! I bought one years ago and never used it, but yes, I'll snug her in with it.

And of course great advice to not throw a lot of coin at the car before she's ready to step up into more performance.

Thanks again everyone. Much appreciated!
