Porsche BOXSTER 718 (982) 2017-2026 — Coilovers

The 718 Boxster’s mid-engined layout hands the 982 a low polar moment of inertia and a near-neutral balance that front-engined rivals spend serious money trying to fake. What it doesn’t give you from the factory is the body control to exploit it – the standard passive setup, and even the PASM sports option, is tuned for broad showroom comfort. XYZ Racing’s coilover range for the Porsche Boxster 718 (982) trades that one-size compromise for ride height and damping you set to your own brief.

This is a family listing covering the full XYZ Racing spec ladder for the 982, from Street Advanced and Super Sport for fast-road use, through Top Sport and Circuit Master for track work, to Racing Spec, Drift Spec and the Tarmac, Gravel and Pro Rally builds. Whichever flat-four 2.0 or 2.5 turbo car you run – or the flat-six GTS 4.0 and Spyder – there is a coilover spec matched to how hard you drive it.

What this coilover kit does for your 2017-2026 Porsche Boxster 718 (982)

Drop the 982 onto a set of XYZ Racing coilovers and the first thing you feel is reduced roll and a flatter platform through quick direction changes, which is exactly where the mid-engine chassis wants to shine. Height-adjustable spring perches let you lower the car for a tighter stance and a lower centre of gravity without the bump-stop crash a cheap lowering spring brings. The damping adjustment on the sportier specs lets you firm up for circuit kerbs or back off for a B-road, so the same Boxster covers a commute and a track day. Worth noting: replacing the struts means stepping outside the factory PASM electronics, so you trade adaptive modes for mechanical adjustability you control directly.

About the coilover range

Each XYZ Racing coilover is built around a damper body with independent ride-height and, on the higher specs, damping adjustment, so corner balancing and stance are set on the car rather than fixed at the factory. Spring rates and valving are chosen per spec: softer, longer-travel tunes for the rally builds, stiffer high-frequency control for the circuit kits, and a road-biased balance for the Street Advanced and Super Sport. The range is engineered to suit the 982’s mid-engine weight distribution rather than being a generic strut swap, which matters on a car this sensitive to balance. Picking a spec is mostly about being honest with yourself about where the Boxster spends its time.
