What's your driving style? Do you drive it by shifting only at high rev points? Ever "red-line" during shifting? If so, I would re-think your driving style espesially after the need of a 2nd engine. Good luck.

i do not race my boxster, i change gears in the 3-5k rpm range as told it was best by Porsche. The first replacement was due to oil, they wouldnt give me any more details. Besides that though, the car was supposed to made for performance and stability, not driven to disaster.

Let's not put this on the driver. He came asking for help not driving advice based on speculation.

Again, to my previous points - POA is helping some people with engine replacement costs out of warranty. I agree that you shouldn't have to have 3 engines at 90K miles. However, there is the concept of fair use. You used the car and the existing engine(s) - a new engine benefits you by, now having a 0 mile engine versus a 90K mile engine. I would approach POA and present my case. If you purchased your P-car at a dealer or went to a dealer regularly for service, they can also help you make your case.

I would be curious as to what the failure was. You mentioned "engine parts" - I don't know of any intermediate shaft failures where they simply "fixed" the engine. It's always been a new or refurbished engine.
