Unless some drastic changes have been made to the fueling system I say stay away... He has the 996 kit 90% nailed down (he used to bring the test cars by the shop because we did development with him.)
Also.. because of the way TPC mounts the supercharger in the Boxster config... the supercharger has a hard time keeping itself oiled. It isnt designed to be hanging at a 45 degree angle. So premature failure is just around the corner. We had 8-10k miles on our car and the bearings in the supercharger where starting to howl.
The car was strong however.. got tired of it lightly up lights in the dash however.

Thanks. I think 3.4l replacement is probably the best option in that case
