A guy called me this week.. His Supercharged 996 engine lasted 500 miles before it blew up (imagine that) after the SC install. He was comparing these engines to domestics and wondering why it cost so much.

I simply told him that since he has so much experience with other engines, and since he doesn't know that all that experience was going cripple him in learning about these engines that he should just rip out the 3.4 and install a Chevy V8. He was blown away that I wasn't trying to sell him something.

A T400 Gas Turbine would fit well in the engine bay of a Boxster.
