I was merely stating that cost comes with the territory.

I don't think that your perception of whats stated on the LN site regarding their 3.6 upgrade was correct when it said nothing else was required.. Thats because what IS required is complete and total engine disassembly and reassembly. They were basically stating that crazy mods like huge heads, wild cams, ECU flashes and 5K exhausts are not mandatory.

Yet again, you compared one process to a complete engine assembly cost wise, which is like comparing your Porsche to a Suzuki Samurai..

Nothing wrong with that, you didn't know..
Just don't assume that the approach I have created isn't viable or being carried out or that what I stated was snooty. The fact is a lot of guys that have GT3s and other Porsches are making Boxsters into track cars because they simply don't care if they run the car off the track and smash it, they can buy another tub for 3K, swap my engine into it and go. They can't do that with their GT3 or Turbo.

In many ways the Boxster platform offers something that only the Cayman can come close to comparing to, give the car the right power and in the right hands the car can't be touched. Thats worth it to enough people.
