Yes, fortunately here in Western Europe there is a good supply of Audi V8 engines, so it is the logical choice for me. I am strongly leaning towards the engine from the VW Phaeton. It seems mechanically the best fit, has good power and is a bit more modern than the ABZ (which is a great engine, but difficult to find with reasonable mileage). Also this era of Audi V8 runs on DME7.1.1 which is close to the ECUs used in the Boxster. It shouldn't be hard to get it to run in a Boxster.
Do you have a build log of the LS4 swap? Always interested to see what others are up to. What I have seen so far on Chevy swaps is that they do require more modifications to the car....
Still hoping someone is working on an Audi V10 swap, should be possible to get it to fit with the right gearbox. Too big of a step for me now.
