yes but its a fantasy game, you are never satified. Its like an addiction to alcohol you need more and more to get the same rush. Its a sort of one dimensional obssession, you feel those G's in your gut and get a thrill and many don't realize there are bigger thrills available from the car. You just have to actually turn the steering wheel and the whites of your eyes will open up wider than you thought possible.
THe Boxster is just not a "power" car and I wonder if dumping another 100 HP would upset the handling without massive modfications to the suspension and all the other things to keep it from becoming an oversteering monster.
By the way there was guy at the autocross yesterday with a yellow Lotus Elise (surprisingly quiet stock) who says a tuner in California is building a turbo for the Elise. The power will be in the neighbohrhood of 270 RWHP on a 1900lb. car!
Get me a set of Falken Azenis on that car and I'll forget all about a 997/987S.
