My price is for a 100% completely reconstructed engine that uses a culmination of my technology with the LN upgrades and expert assembly followed by both engine and chassis dyno evaluations. It also includes FREE removal and reinstallation of the engine into your Porsche.

To disassemble the engine to ONLY do the LN upgrade to 3.6 liters the assembly labor is the same as what we'd charge for the complete engine, as EVERY component MUST be removed. If you attempted to only do this one enhancement you'd still spend 3K in required parts and the same 5K on assembly, maybe even more if done by a less than competent (slow) M96 engine assembler.

In short, the enhancement to the LN Nickies cylinders is one aspect of my engine, there are 22 more that you haven't considered.. Thats why the prices are north of 15K. We leave no stone unturned, we assume nothing, we risk nothing.

If an engine sees a bore change without coefficient optimization of the related internal components the result is an inefficient combination that has a narrow powerband, is hard to tune, runs hotter and gets lousy MPG. My most recent stage ! 3.6 based from a 3.2 has attained upward of 32 MPG even with spirited driving! Thats 7 MPG more than the same car with the base 3.2 made when it produced 40 less HP in stock form. This insane fuel economy and power is a direct illustration of the efficiency of my engine design.

that engine is also running with a STOCK ECU flash, has STOCK 3.2 exhaust and a STOCK 3.2 intake system. It has all the benefits of a bone stock engine, but hauls ass, sounds great and has amazed its driver enough to sell his BMW M3.. Thats a Stage I engine, its changes and alterations are required to optimize the bore enhancement.

Which would be..
