I have a few sets of very lightly used hybrid high performance pads from my old Boxster track days just sitting on a shelf.   Pm if u want a great deal.   I cannot check right now, but think there may be some hawk hps and some pagid.   I’m from San Diego.

Yes, this is normal and how a porsche wants to be driven.  Its not a civic, drive it over 3k rpm and enjoy.

While i appreciate the desire to go faster the stock boxster will take you, i think you may want to consider parts to keep the car on the track, along with the go-fast parts.

Scan the boxster spec boards for what they are allowed to do and what often breaks.

My off the top of head suggestions would be:

New radiator fill cap.  The stock ones are old and replaced by newer units.  I recently lost a track day due to the $14 part.

3rd (front) radiator off boxster S

Larger oil cooler from boxster S

X51 oil pan

Flush your brake fluid with motul.

Might as well do stainless brake lines while there.

Good luck.

I changed ours out not long after replacing the motor mount(console), at about 50+k. It made a fair bit of difference(improved shifting, less drivetrain movement, virtually eliminated all vibrations/noises/rattles, etc.). Ours were not leaking but they had collasped at least .5-.75 of and inch. They were somewhat pricey at about $200 a piece. Its not a bad DIY, but if menory serves me, the passenger side trans mount is a bit of a bear to R&R(read:very tight).

Heck, Ive seen a guy swap out tranny mounts on a stock Box in a parking lot at an autocross.

I dont think its that big of a deal as far as DIY goes.

U should at least be able to find a non-dealer repair shop to do it for much less.

If you are in SoCal i can give you some leads.
