Default 300K Miles!
Good news....

http://pedrosboard.com/read.php?7,45064,45105#msg-45105

1999 Boxster.... 300K miles. These were the earliest versions of the M96/M97 and blew up left and right. So if you are worried about your 997.1, take heart!

Peace

It may have to do with how the engine was used...

Drive the crap out of it! Like the good Doctor Porsche intended. Makes me feel like I own a garage queen, only 1 K miles in the past month. At this pace, I'll lose my license due to advanced codger status before I get to 300 K miles!

Owner states he did regular track events and had the IMS upgraded at 200,000 miles.
