That depends on sooo many variables I can only give you a rough estimate without more info. Are you wanting to get a used 3.6L 996 engine from a salvaged car? That will probably run anywhere from 3k-7k depending on mileage and condition. A new or reconditioned 3.6L will run you approx 10-15K. 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

UHG. What year is your car, what are your expected HP results. Do you just want 300 horses or a 996 engine, because Porschedoc said a supercharged 2.5 is more powerful than a 3.4, and its a lot cheaper. Or are you wanting a 3.4 or 3.6 and then superchargeing that, what are you wanting basically?

About a hundred dollars.

Dont forget tax... thats another $8.25.
and Shipping, About $3.49 plus the $1.50 for the Flatrate envelope to package the engine.

basicly i need horse power on boxster

but what i heard is swap engine is better and easier to get more power

and i also think that it's gonna destroy engine with supercharge or turbo?
