rather than servo assistance, could opt for a larger master cylinder.

not sure how the system is set out on anything earlier than a 3.2.

Its easy enough to run a rubber pipe down the car to the front the drive a servo system. Get a second hand 3.2 servo and fit a turbo master cylinder.

Maybe source some 930 calipers, but Im sure the boxster ones can be made to fit.
