I'd rather less peak power and a smoother torque curve. It does look a bit nothing nothing then bang which goes against the smooth style and chassis of a Boxster. How much does this cost vs a 3.7 or 911 engine'd Boxster?

This one is of course being built as a race car but more torque lower down would presumably be acheivable with the appropriate map. smile

I've been following a couple of these Subaru swap projects for the last few years... I think it's an interesting alternative.

I am sure it will be significantly cheaper than upgrading to a 3.7 engine and you still have your old, (hopefully) running engine to sell for extra cash.

I'd be interested in an early Cayman with this conversion...

It looks nice from underneath but absolutely horrible from every other angle laugh
