UHG. What year is your car, what are your expected HP results. Do you just want 300 horses or a 996 engine, because Porschedoc said a supercharged 2.5 is more powerful than a 3.4, and its a lot cheaper. Or are you wanting a 3.4 or 3.6 and then superchargeing that, what are you wanting basically?

Goo, the 3.4L is from 99-01 996's. Bogg, I have to disagree with you and the Doc about the supercharged 2.5L being as powerful as any 996 engine. A s/c 2.5L might make boxster S power at best which would be in the 250ish hp range. A S/C can only safely put about 5 psi into the engine without serious modifications.

No, think about it. You are assuming 2 different things. You think because it says 300 its 300, and you think that when they dyno test a supercherged boxster, its at that number. But a dynoed 3.4 and a supercharged boxster are similar. So think it through and dont compare crank HP to wheel HP.

I was comparing crank hp to crank hp. Lets talk wheel hp to wheel hp to make it more clear. A stock 2.5L makes about 170 hp at the wheels. A bolt on S/C will give the 2.5L engine about a 50 hp gain which would come to around 220 hp at the wheels....which is what a stock early model boxster S puts down to the ground. Even the smaller 3.4L 996 engine puts down around 255 hp to the ground. Bottom line is the 996 engine has more power. If you have some dyno sheets of a s/c 2.5L or if you have a link that says otherwise I'd like to check it out.
