the boxster is one of the best handling sports cars in the world. im sure you know that porsche tunes the handling so much that even the wrong tires throw everything off. after putting in a different engine that doesnt have its mass at the bottom like a flat 6, do you really think its gonna handle like a porsche. if you just want low end grunt buy a camaro.

by the time you fabricate the pieces to mount the engine and relocate some of its components, change the suspension components, cornerweight the car, etc....you have a very expensive car. a corvette or a used 911 start looking pretty good. you could get a nice c5 vette for less money than this monstrosity would cost. the c5 vette is pretty well balanced. it was a successful race car.
