I'll do more research Thanks!
Mods are so common on FDs, you're bound to have a bunch of people complaining about problems. Especially considering how sensitive they are to any changes in flow. Their price also makes them attractive to kids with just enough $$ to buy them but then they take short cuts on tryong to make more power. In general, the FDs will last a long time if left stock and cared for.

The aftermarket products available to Boxsters is extremely small compared to the FD. The Boxster crowd is much less active in internal mods for this reason and the drivers are generally more mature. It's hard to screw up a Boxster when the common mods are limited to exhaust and intake.

In general, if you want to keep either one in good shape, the Boxster will probably cost you more.
