A typical buyer will never have good answers to all these questions.
So generally speaking they won't put a big premium on aftermarket engine work.
But at the same time, you never really own a sports car. You own an engine with a car tossed in.
So if there's anything that should command a premium it's not the wheels, headlights, new top, etc.

That was part of my thinking before putting all the money in my engine. My Box can be hit & totaled anytime, but I still own it & can transfer the engine to another Boxster S. Even if it is stolen they usually are found soon.
