Porscheboy swapped out a 2.7L to a 3.2L. I think he picked up a slightly used 3.2 for a few grand. I know the 3.4L is expensive, but if I was going to upgrade from a 2.7L I would have to go 3.4L. The jump in performance is much bigger with the 3.4L. I don't think a 33hp jump in hp warrants the expense and time of an engine swap. 217hp to 295hp is much nicer than 217-250hp. The 2.5L to 3.2L swap makes more sense because the 2.5L has 201hp; the jump to the 3.2L 250/258hp would feel like you put a rocket booster on the back of the car.
