Let's say that your Boxster does 0-60 in 5.8, or 6 seconds or even 7 seconds.

According to a gps verifiable system, a stock Panamera TT does 10.14 in a 60 to 130 run.
Same car with an ecu tune does 60-130 in 8.28 seconds.

Even if you take into consideration the extra 10mph and the time required, do you think any Boxster will beat their 0-60 time going 60-120?

Oh, get the underdrive pulley for the best gain and it saves your power steering pump too.
All spoken like a TRUE RACER! DFW02S SHOULD KNOW - he has been to every track around here testing!

BTW - Cold Air Intake was the cheapest bang for me! Less than $100 - built my own - there's a thread on it somewhere here (you can pay $200-$500 for one - so be aware).

UD Pulley (a good one like RSS) is $200. Be careful filing down the boss. And make sure to include a new crankshaft bolt, another $10.

For $250 you could have a nice-sounding exhaust with reasonable grunt in the low end. Combine that with a Cat Back system (around $150) and you are off!

Individual results may vary!
