LS1 in a boxster

[JTP]

I also had been following Brad Robert's V8 conversion thread and was wondering what had happened. It's too bad the Cayenne/Audi engines he originally wanted to fit didn't work out.

This is the thread I had been reading: http://www.914club.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=69069

Brad lives nearby and I have seen the project in various stages. It's a long slow process and the devil is in the details.

I cant wait for this to be completed. It would be a real supercar essentially. Not only that for a fraction of what you would pay for a similar Porsche motor putting down the same power. (disregarding longterm upkeep even)


wonder how much the kit would cost. I wish I could help with it all seems groundbreaking.

I'd drop a LS1 in my car when the motor blows if someone made a kit for it.

Brad, are you listening??????

I want to know if the new 4 cyl turbo that might come out will fit our tranny and mounts. If so I will drop that in and figure out the wiring later.

from what i have heard around the NET is that if they do the 4cyl it may still be just entry level and not meant to compete with the 987S seems childish to me.


they should do it like the 968TS


3.0 4cyl turbo


nice.

Great...a Boxster that sounds like a NASCAR.

I was looking through the other thread from a while ago about this and there were alot of haters. it seems maybe some people now see the merit?
