There are lots of issues that can reduce output without throwing a CEL.. some of these are MAF issues, others are fuel pressure or fuel injector related and even issues with catalytic converters.

Or a low power engine may have an impending mechanical issue... I haven't ever seen a healthy Boxster S engine that didn't make at minimum 205HP at the wheels.. That engine was very tired with near 30,000 track miles on it.
