The K-line output from the Boxster ECU is far too slow to really capture meaningful data. It has many of the right channels. TPS for instance would not even remotely show you accurately where you were full throttle on corner exit. That why additional sensors are the way to go, or taping the signal from the TPS in this case.
My experience with Aim is this exact thing. My speedometer show one thing on track and on replay is often 5 MPH lower Tack is similar. So you never see your peek speed on video. and my gas pedal was often 40 to 60 % when I know it was matted.
