BoxsterLS376 introduction - LS3 conversion :)

Great news John. I'm really anxious to see what all is involved and will give you a call soon to set up a time for a visit. I'm only about 10 miles from your shop.

I'm going to look at a car Friday and have started my search for the best price on a crate motor. I'm leaning towards the LS 525 which may be over kill but it's hard to imagine too much power :-)

Just remember you still gotta get all that power to the ground through the clutch, trans, and axles that were engineered and designed for 250hp. Powerful cars are great. Powerful cars that always break... not so much. Choose wisely.

The flywheel, clutch and pressure plate are replaced with stronger components.

Sorry but the Boxster S transmission was designed for far more than 250 HP. It is essentially the same box as the 996 series cars internally.

Renegade has a running car with over 600 HP and the transmission is fine.

And FWIW I know all about getting the power to the ground.
