Not trying to add to the debate, but the plastic impellers break even when the bearings are still fine and there is no shaft wobble. The risks of each type are well documented, so we make our choices and take those risks that come with what ever pump you choose. It's your car to do whatever you want to do to it.
There are plenty of used engines around to replace whatever type of failure you may experience, whether it is a breached crankcase or a cracked head.
The joys of Boxster ownership live on.
