The intake, exhaust, cat bypass, chip upgrade will get another 25hp and cost about $3K. Or Clubhead got the header, sports cat and exhaust for similar gain.
thanks for all the helpful responses.

I did drive a 01 996C4. I found it to be significantly brawnier than my S - maybe it was the exhaust it had, but either way, i would imagine the c4 is at least 400lbs heavier than a boxster?

Either way, i'll be keeping you guys posted.

I've also been thinking about a carrera i must admit, but by the time i get a conv optioned how i want....its a ton of $$$$$. I wonder whether id be happier with a "me too carrera" or a tricked outr csutom box that will blow away the portly, awd carrera.
