Hey Doc,

I'm no scientist but this is what i was told. The Boxster brakes on the base are amazing. No need to buy S brakes.

If you ask me, they only put those brakes on the S to make it different from the base model. Meaning that they needed to justify an S model, so they gave you red S brakes, a new bumper, 6speed and so on. So pretty much it's a waste of money to put the S brakes on a base.

If you plan to drive the car at 150mph and come to a complete stop everytime that you drive, then yes get the S brakes.

I'm under the impression that the big brakes just make the car stop faster / better / closer ?

n for that matter, the base brakes are pretty big. I painted mine yellow, and they are pretty big.
