I'm all for modding cars. But personally, in a car like the Box, I'd far rather have a zing, revvier smaller capacity engine with lots of top end howl. The sound and power delivery of a big Chevy V8, while very attractive in some cars, is just not what I'd ever want in a Boxster. Something that performed like a BMW M Power straight-six (not an option due to layout, obviously) would be very interesting. But I'd have to say no thanks to a Chevy V8.
