You obviously don't know what your even talking about. There is nothing ugly about it. Maybe Martsink's design of a firewall, but that was his choice. And what does Porsche have to do with it?

Stock 5.3's have put down to the ground, 250whp, where as a stock Boxster S will see 200. Stock 5.3's with just a turbocharger and tune can and have put down quad digit HP numbers and even more Torque, no internal modifications. And to input a LSx into a Boxster, only mild cutting and rewelding to "in the way" unibody is required. Its been done a few times already, and as BoxsterLS376 has shown, has been done to easilly gain 450whp (Wheel Horsepower, not Flywheel) to look stock, and almost sound stock.

In Fact, John does a lovely job to make it look as stock as possible.
