I specifically said 3.8 because you will not be able to get your 986 ECU to work with the 987 motor with variocam plus. Parts for 3.4 swap are readily available.

Tell me, where are you going to get an exhaust that has the correct size piping for the 3.8? You have to get one fabricated and that means $.

I bet someone here is going to say 997 exhaust drops right in.
