I looked into the same upgrade for my 2004 Boxster S through Jake Raby. They can do the upgrade for you and you'll be looking at $18-20k out the door which would include labor & shipping your car to/from them and using your current engine. In my opinion, that is the best way to go right now to get a turn-key deal and know that you are getting a solid upgrade.

Jake thought I might be able to knock $2-3k off the total cost buy buying a core from them and selling my current healthy motor. Of course, that would all depend on what I could get out of my currently healthy 3.2. You also might be able to save a little cost if you can get a smoking deal locally on the install labor and just buy the engine from Jake or install everything yourself.

I'm having to hold off for now due to the cost and me not feeling too great about the economy right now, but I plan to go through Jake eventually on this upgrade.
