The Cayman uses a 23 spline hub,the Boxster S is 21. I nearly made an expensive mistake there.

Does not fit 986 Boxster S
By Bfan, submitted October 22, 2013
Comments: I had read some where that I could use this disk on my 986 Boxster S 2001, and it would give me somewhat more bite.
It does not fit, the splines are slightly different. It is surely an excellent product for its use.
do yourself a favor, and install the "regular" sachs clutch kit (for $322 on ebay including disc, pressure plate and release bearing).
the "upgraded" Cayman part will not give you any benefits unless you have plans of supercharging your engine or replacing it with a 3.6L.
when i did the clutch on my S, i also replaced the flywheel for under $400 on ebay.
both the Luk flywheel and sachs parts were identical to the parts i removed from the car.
