This one is easy. It's not mental. The Boxster chassis is so good, it just is not as satisfying with less power. Take my word for it. The only unsatisfying thing about my 986S was that it "only" had 250hp. A 987 with the same power but less torque would not be satisfactory. I always felt like the chassis was good for at least 350hp and I was always researching the big-motor swaps, which have become more common.
