Just a rough guess, but i'd say if you did want to swap in a 911 engine instead of just another 2.7L the difference in price would probbaly be 5-10k. Remember the newer boxsters have gained some weight too, so a 2000 boxster with a 3.4L should be a tad faster than a new 2008 S with a 3.4L as well.

Hey Ike, can you give a rough estimate in $ how much RUF charged to put the x51 into your car?

I caught the power bug .. bad .. and I need help.

I will let you know next week! :dance:

Further details to follow but let us just say that 500 is a good sounding number.

I think someone on the board has a roller they might be willing to part with, then you can go ahead and dump whatever you want in it now and still walk away pretty cheap.

I don't remember who, but you could find it easy enough with a quick search.
