Thanks for all of that info. Since I will not be tracking the car and I don't drive aggressively I probably don't need to do the whole thing. I'm looking for comfort and tightness coming through the wheel. Is that correct?

One problem is that I want to go with OEM though because my experience with Bilsteins and Koni's is that they are set up from the factory stiffer than factory struts. Talking to a Koni tech last month on putting their adjustable shock on a Z4, he said that the lowest/softest setting was still firmer than the OEM shock.

From both of your pricing estimates it looks like I can do struts, mounts, and bushings for around $1,500 + labor. I went through this with a Volvo V70 once and it was determined that they were Boge shocks. Do you know what kind the Boxster used from new?
