Camshaft Timing.
Pelican has a diy, there are some epic Threads Search for Poster "Insite".Sadly his superb photos got dumped.
Until the static timing is perfect, it is pointless discussing much else.
Bank 2 on a Boxster is difficult with the engine in the car - and I have done it many times. But I have all the special tools , a few other aids, a 2 post lift in a quiet ,cool garage and plenty of time .And it is still difficult.That Schnell Gelb guy had similar advantages and problems.
If your circumstances are less than ideal and this is your first time, I suggest an honest,competent M96 Indie. Ask here for recommendations.
Any fool can pop the green plugs and may be able to fit the special tool. Then the problems begin. The first is seeing the Timing Marks.
