I'm assuming you don't have the technical know how to perform the swap so you have to consider who will do it. If RUF or comparable company does the job expect an additional 10k or so in parts and labor. If the local Indy shop does the job maybe half that and cross your fingers. Bottom line is you are probably looking at around 10k dollars on the extreme low end and about 25K at the high end. If you don't have Bosch motronic 7.8 which was on all 2003+ boxsters you are looking at considerably more money...in which case a 3.4L swap would be the better choice.

where is 3.4 come from? 993?

sorry that i don't know too much bout porsche i'm really new for this.

and i don't think that set turbo on 3.2 boxster gonna better , isn't it?

thanks
