Here is what I know:

The 3.2 uses a head nearly identical to the 3.4

The 3.4 makes 300hp stock

The 3.2 makes 250hp stock

Porsche CUTS THE NUTS off of the Cayman's and the Boxster's

If I use the same size exhaust and cats from a 3.4/3.6 on a 3.2 and utilize a 3.4 Cayman Airbox and a 3.4 sized throttle body, I *should* be able to make 300hp out of the 3.2 engine without compromising anything. We have already made 250 with a 2.7 with little to no mods.

3.4 has the 3.2 crank with just smaller pistons in the 3.2
3.4/3.2 cams are identical.. (they say 3.2/3.4 on them)

I have the 3.2 car I'm going to test all of this on, and I have a base tune ready for the car based on a 3.4 tune.

As some of you dig in deeper to the ECU's you are going to see the BIG cam timing difference between a 3.4 996 tune and a 3.2 986 tune. Then again with the 3.4 CaymanS tune and the 3.6 996 tune.
