By introducing turbos you lose throttle response. Personally, I wouldn't trade 15% more torque for loss of throttle response. The Boxster's throttle response gives you confidence to push a corner on the throttle because you trust the amount of thrust the car will respond with. With a turbo, there is less confidence because there is a delay... then a SURGE!

This is (for me) what makes the Boxster so much fun to drive.
