The bast bang for the buck on the Boxster is remove as much weight as possible. Full exhaust headers etc (if legal) 36-40 lbs, AC? ditch it if you can, spare tire? gone... track days any way. Stock seats... gone. How many creature comforts do you need on the street? Weigh that into the equation. Lightweight wheels are a good $$ too. But, as others have said, skill is the best equalizer. Most of the top end/intake motor mods make more noise than anything else IMO.

Another CRAZY heavy item is the stock steering wheel! OMG that thing is a boat anchor! You loose your airbag, but some things are a trade off. Most of the cars I've owned over the years never had airbags...
