Interesting project. I am not sure why you would choose the Boxster as a chassis though. For a race car it's pretty heavy and the ECU/Alarm/ immobilizer will all have to be gutted and replaced with a custom engine mgmt like Motronic. No way the Porsche ECU will get friendly with a turbo Wankel. I'd guess the trans and mounts are the least of your worries. Why not use a nice light RX7 chassis or build a tube frame around your power plant? Any way you go it will turn into a big ol' science experiment.
