Just look at the schematic for turbo routing for an EA888 vs the 718 motor. Even if they shared pistons, con rods and valves, they'd behave nothing alike.

Do you also believe that the 982 motor was essentially the VW VR6 just because they both had six cylinders?

OP, if you don't need the rear seats, dynamics of a Cayman/Boxster are massively better than anything BMW has ever built, you'll enjoy the switch.
No one said share parts.
