You apparently didn't take into account that the 911/930 is quite a bit LIGHTER than a Boxster. I'd guess at least 500lb, if not more.
My 71 911 Coupe weighed in at about 2200lb. Pretty light.
Speed isn't about simply how much horsepower a car has, it's about the power to weight ratio. It's pretty high in the old air cooled 911s!
