Right now, into the 986, the largest displacement that is a pretty straightforward swap is the 3.6L from the 996. I believe there are a couple 986 boxsters out there with the 997 3.8L, but that is a pretty extreme and involved swap. The 987 boxster can get away with the 3.8L from the 997. You could go pretty large...and could always go big bore on a 3.6L and make it a 4.0L or even larger.. the motor itself is the same size... just playing around with the internals to get a bigger displacement
