Hey Woody, the Bentley manual for the A6 covers the 2.7tt 2000-2004. Let me know if there is anything in particular you need and i can shoot it to you.

I appreciate the offer but I'll need to buy my own when the time comes for the swap. I do have a question about the immobilizer though. Were you able to get rid of it?

If you are using the Audi ECU for engine management, the Boxster's immobilizer is irrelevant.
Look at this for basic info on immobilizer delete on the Audi ECU: Reading/writing/cloning your immobilizer: A beginners guide.

The Audi Immo is pretty trivial to bypass. Free software and instructions available on the web - look for me7_95040.exe Nefariousmotorsports.com should have it.

To defeat the immo, use a program called me7_95040.exe to dump the contents of the immobilizer chip to the computer. To do this, I put the ECU in boot mode, by grounding pin 24 of the immobilizer chip for 5 seconds while powering up the ECU. I then ran the program from the command prompt and dumped the file. To defeat the immobilizer 2 bits must be changed at locations 12 and 22 from 01 to 02 and the checksum recalculated. I used a hex editor to change the bit values and then used a program called 95040CSCalc.exe to write the fixed checksum. Using me7_95040.exe I uploaded the revised file to the ecu and the immobilizer was defeated.

Yes, I agree that it is pretty trivial, IF you know what are you doing..

PS, the more I learn, the more I find out how much I don't know
