Actually there are speciffic Porsche tires. The Miata S uses 4, 205-40R-17 or largest recomended size a 215-35R-18. Boxster auto corss size is 225-45ZR-17 or 225-40ZR-18 front and 255-40ZR-17, or 265-35ZR-18 rears. There is a big price differecne even if your not buying porsche specified tires. That's even more if you buy the Porsche speciffic tires. Dualmass race spec flywheel at cost $1100. LWSM Flywheel at cost $750. Clutch and pressure plate combos at cost start at $450 (pretty much stock) and go up to $1500. If you buy aftermarket /remanufactured you might be able to get these parts for $500. Problem being they won't hold up on track. The thing is you wanted good knowledgeable advice & 7 or 8 knowledgable people gave you good advice, it just was what you wanted to here. The difference between what you wanted to hear and what you heard was 20 to 40 years of experience.
