It's things like this that drive down the values of perfectly good Boxsters. Like JFP said, an IMS bearing does not make a sound whether healthy, failing or whatever. It certainly doesn't 'tick'.
A little knowledge is a dangerous thing and most people have just enough information about the IMS to really not understand anything at all. They only know that Boxsters are ticking time bombs that can leave you stranded at anytime. This is another overblown car story like the Corvair about to spin out at any moment, or the Pinto that explodes if you touch it, or the Audi that will accelerate uncontrollably if you hammer the brake pedal.
The 'ticking' sound can and should be diagnosed. Just get it looked at for peace of mind. Consider it a PSI, a Pre-Sales Inspection.
