I'm approaching 100k miles fast. My 2.7 is in the shop for an oil change today and look over and they found some minor oil leaks coming off the cams and RMS. They quoted me around $3100 for the repairs. I couldn't help but think that $3100 combined with another $5000 could get me a decent 3.4 or 3.6 engine. I love my Boxster to the point of obsession but I've always wanted more power. After reading the article in Excellence this month where the guy converted his '98 2.5 over to a 3.4 I'm totally sold that at some point I'm going to do this. I'd rather not spend thousands maintaining my 2.7 engine when that cash could go towards the swap.
The question is what would be more cost effective, a 3.4 or 3.6 swap or have my current engine bored out like the service Flat 6 Innovations provides?
