I wasn't speaking of just engines, which are crazily expensive for a Boxster. My point was, you generally end up "upside down" when making performance modifications. No need to be a di*@ with the last comment.

There's many fine, upstanding people in this country with chain steering wheels and hydraulics.

There`s a 944 with an old school small block Chevy in it here. I guess you can get a kit for it ? Not impressed with it. A local has a Corvair with a Vette engine. Very impressed. AutoX killer.

It's all in how you do it. Just putting it in does not necessarily make it fast.
